GPT-5.5 – Capable and Highly Accurate Model for Real Work

Trusted by users from 10,000+ companies

Additional Capabilities GPT-5.5 Brings

Apart from headline changes, GPT-5.5 offers smaller improvements that compound into bigger advantages.

Token efficiency

GPT-5.5 completes the same tasks using significantly fewer tokens than GPT-5.4, delivering more capable results at lower cost in Codex.

Same-speed serving

Despite the jump in capability, GPT-5.5 matches GPT-5.4's per-token latency in real-world serving. More intelligence, no wait penalty.

Computer use

GPT-5.5 can operate software directly, navigating interfaces, filling forms, and executing multi-step tasks the way a person would.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers covering access, pricing, capabilities, and how GPT-5.5 compares to previous models.

Scientific reasoning

Meaningful gains on scientific and technical research workflows, including early-stage drug discovery and experimental debugging tasks.

Destructive action prevention

GPT-5.5 distinguishes its own work from user work and reverts only its own changes, protecting user output even in complex, multi-agent environments.

Context retention

Holds context reliably across large systems and long sessions, carrying changes through surrounding codebases without losing track of earlier decisions.

Document creation

Improved latency on document and spreadsheet creation tasks, producing complete, structured outputs faster without sacrificing accuracy.

Cybersecurity access

Verified defenders can apply for Trusted Access for Cyber to unlock GPT-5.5's advanced security capabilities with fewer restrictions for legitimate defensive work.

Codex integration

GPT-5.5 is the default model in Codex for all paid tiers, with OpenAI's tuning specifically optimised for agentic coding performance at lower token cost.

Frontier Performance in Real-world Tasks

GPT-5.5 leads across the evaluations that mirror how professionals and researchers actually work.

Excels at Clinician-use Evaluation

GPT-5.5 scores higher than any previous GPT model on HealthBench Professional,designed for clinical use cases, with both higher raw and length-adjusted scores.

Top Agentic Coding Model

GPT-5.5 leads SWE-Bench Verified, placing it at the top of the field for resolving real production software issues autonomously across full codebases.

Most Accurate GPT Model

On conversations where users had previously flagged factual errors, GPT-5.5's individual claims are 23% more likely to be correct, improving precision and trustworthiness.

Work that Figures Itself Out

GPT-5.5 understands what a task actually requires before starting, identifies the gaps in ambiguous briefs, and builds a plan without waiting to be walked through it. Early access teams reported saving up to 10 hours of work per week.

Research and Analysis at a Different Speed

GPT-5.5 handles multi-step research workflows autonomously, searching, synthesising, and checking its conclusions against source material. What previously required breaking a brief into a sequence of separate prompts now runs as a single task.

Accuracy on Work that Cannot Afford Errors

GPT-5.5 is more factually reliable than its predecessors, particularly on precision-dependent tasks in finance, law, medicine, and research. Early users at regulated financial institutions reported a step-change in output accuracy.
