GPT-5.6 Sol vs Fugu

Compare recorded price, context, output limits, speed, latency, capabilities, and input/output support. Every missing value stays visible, and unsourced benchmarks are excluded.

GPT-5.6 Sol and Fugu both come up when teams are choosing a model for production work, and the honest answer usually depends on your workload rather than a leaderboard. This page puts their published specifications side by side — context window, token pricing, supported inputs and outputs — so you can see where they actually differ.

Evidence

Verified shared benchmarks

A score appears only when both records include a verified source. It is not treated as a universal ranking.

These two models haven't been measured on the same benchmark yet, so there's nothing meaningful to chart. Comparing scores from different tests would tell you more about the tests than the models — the specs and pricing above are the better guide here.

Workload guidance

Which model should you choose?

On the published numbers, GPT-5.6 Sol accepts the larger context window. Which matters more depends on whether your bottleneck is document size or spend — the table above has the exact figures.

Provenance

Sources and data limits

Prices and hosted performance can change. SyncDev records source references and clearly separates documented specifications from measured values; confirm commercial terms with the provider before deployment.

Questions people ask

It compares recorded context and output limits, token prices, output speed, time to first token, Intelligence Index, modality support, tool and structured-output capabilities, release information, and only source-linked benchmarks verified on both records. Missing information is labeled rather than inferred.
