Comparison with Other Models

vs GPT-5: GPT-5 Pro focuses on deep reasoning, complex instruction accuracy, and enterprise-level tool usage with slower but higher-quality outputs. GPT-5  is faster for everyday tasks but lacks the extensive context window and reasoning depth of Pro.

vs GPT-4o: GPT-5 Pro significantly outperforms GPT-4o in accuracy and reasoning, exemplified by a 94.6% score on the AIME 2025 math test versus GPT-4o’s 71%. Pro also brings a vastly improved context window, multimodal support, and fewer factual errors, albeit with slower response times.

vs OpenAI o3: Compared to o3, GPT-5 Pro has superior problem-solving ability, multimodal integration, and structured output generation. It also boasts higher accuracy and better handling of complex, real-world tasks though at a higher computational cost.

vs Claude Opus 4.1: Claude Opus 4.1 excels in polished outputs and narrative flow with high reliability, whereas GPT-5 Pro leads in multi-modal reasoning, enterprise-grade robustness, and tool-based workflows. GPT-5 Pro’s reasoning and technical task handling surpass Claude’s general writing strengths.
