Just hours after announcing a significant price reduction for the O3 thinking model, made Openai O3-PRO, a more powerful version available for developers.
The O3-PRO is designed to think for a longer period and provide the most reliable responses, “and has more access to many software tools more than its predecessor, which makes it possible to be attractive to institutions and developers searching for high levels of details and accuracy.
However, this model will also be slower than many developers used to, with access to Openai computer tools that make the model more accurate.
The company said in an email to reporters: “Since 03-PRO has access to tools, the responses usually take longer than the O1-PRO to complete. We recommend using it for difficult questions that increase reliability more than speed, and wait a few minutes worth barter.”
Come and see Openai Head of Product, API Olivier Goodment Personal at VB Transform 2025 in San Francisco 24-25 June. Register now while the tickets are still.
But how long? We have asked Openai about the slower O3-PRO from O3 on average to the output responses and we will update when we receive one of the company.
On X, Hyerbolic Labs participated in the co-founder and CTO Yuchen Jin published several clips of its O3-PRO use, which shows that it took $ 3 and $ 80 of the distinctive code to respond to the phrase “Hello, I am Sam Altman”.
Bindu Reddy, CEO of Abacus AI, said that O3-PRO took two minutes to respond to “Ya there.”

How to use Openai O3-PRO
The developers can access the O3-PRO through Openai API as well as for Proo and team of Chatgpt. The release of the new O1-PRO model is replaced by models to pay Chatgpt users.
Openai said that O3-PRO “has access to tools that make Chatgpt useful”, such as web search, file analysis, the reason for visual inputs, use of Python, and customization of responses.
Nevertheless, the situation is expensive, which may give some institution developers a temporary stop. Based on the Openai pricing page, the cost of O3-PRO is $ 20 per income and $ 80 for outputs, compared to the O3 itself, which has now decreased to $ 2 and 8 dollars, which is ten price.
More comprehensive model
Openai O3 and O4-MINI launched in April, expanding the “O” chain of thinking that depends on thinking and can “think about pictures”. The new model, O3-PRO, uses the same basic model as O3.

Openai’s assessments showed that O3-PRO can often outperform the basic model. Expert auditors have ranked higher in fields such as science, education, programming, business and auxiliary writing. The company said that O3-PRO is more effective and more comprehensive, and better follow instructions.

Thinking models have become a new battlefield for model service providers, with competitors such as Google, HotHROPIC and Xai, as well as China’s competitors, such as Deepseek, with their own models designed to think through responses.
Currently, O3-PRO cannot create photos, and Openai has disabled temporary chat to solve a technical problem. The expanded canvas for ChatgPt also cannot be accessed using O3-PRO.
Some first users claim that the O3-PRO was noticeably working, but it is still the first days, and the high cost of operation may prevent some developers from trying them.
See some initial reactions below:
Ben Hyak, a former Apple Vision Pro interface and co -founder of Startup Raindrop Ai Solutions Solutions in a blog post about his early use to reach O3, wrote, “It is noticeably better in distinguishing between its environment; the delivery of the accurate tools that communicate with it, continues accurately, and connecting the tools accurately.” Openai founder and CEO of SAM Altman also highlighted the Hyak Blog post in X.
The launch also comes at a time when Openai said that it has reached three million business users, as the Users of the Foundation increased by 50 % since February.
