Which tier to use
What each costs against standard in our data, and the job it is for.
Batch
The batch tier (gpt-5.4:batch) is 50% cheaper than standard. Batch requests are queued and answered asynchronously, typically within 24 hours, so it suits work nobody is waiting on: evaluations, back-fills, bulk classification and tagging. Anything a user is waiting on belongs on the standard tier.
Pro
gpt-5.4-pro is 12× standard. Pro tiers spend more compute on each request. At 12 times the price, route only the hard cases to it, the ones where gpt-5.4 gets the answer wrong, and keep everything else on standard. Pro is also sold as batch (gpt-5.4-pro:batch), 6× standard, for hard problems that can wait a day.
Dated snapshots
One dated snapshot (gpt-5.4-2026-03-05) is listed at the same price as standard. A snapshot pins the model to one release, while the undated name moves to newer releases when the vendor updates it. Pin a snapshot in production when your prompts depend on exact output; use the undated name to pick up improvements automatically.
Direct or through a reseller
Through OpenRouter, gpt-5.4 is the same price as buying direct. A reseller is worth it for one bill across vendors and automatic fallback; buy direct for the vendor's own batch, caching and rate-limit terms.
