Options, strengths and limitations

  1. GPT-6.1 Sol

    The largest published window here, 1,050,000 tokens, 1,424 more than Gemini 3.8 Flash and Kimi K3.109

    Context window (tokens)
    1,050,000
    Output speed (tokens/s)
    54.7
    Request cost ($)
    0.03000

    Strengths

    Its 51.4% HLE score is second only to Claude Opus 5.5’s 61.4%, at half Claude’s $0.06000 short-request cost.109

    Limitations

    Once input exceeds 272,000 tokens the whole request is billed at 2× input and 1.5× output, so a 500,000-token prompt costs $2.00 in input alone.109

    109

  2. Gemini 3.8 Flash

    1,048,576 tokens at the lowest proprietary-model price here, $0.01125 per short request.131112

    Strengths

    Its 132.2 tokens/s is the second-fastest output here, behind DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017’s 169.0.131112

    Limitations

    The text rates are promotional through 2026-12-31; from 2027-01-01 they double to $1.50 input and $7.50 output, and audio input is billed separately.131112

    131112

  3. Kimi K3

    1,048,576 tokens, and on Novita AI the same 1,048,576-token limit applies to output.164718

    1,048,576
    Output speed (tokens/s)
    52.7
    Request cost ($)
    0.04500

    Strengths

    Its 1,048,576-token output limit on Novita AI is 2.7× DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017’s 393,216 and 8× GLM-5.3’s 131,072 on the same platform.164718

    Limitations

    At 52.7 tokens/s it is the slowest model here, and its $0.04500 short request is the second most expensive.164718

    164718

  4. MiniMax-M3.1-Flash

    1,000,000 tokens at the lowest short-request cost here, $0.00210.175818

Methodology and sources

Published capacity uses each vendor’s model documentation or model card. AA’s tested context, HLE and output speed come from AA model pages, at max reasoning for Claude Opus 5.5 (default fallback), DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017, GLM-5.3 and Kimi K3, and high reasoning for GPT-6.1 Sol and Gemini 3.8 Flash. Novita AI context and output limits come from its pricing page. The short cost example is 10,000 input and 1,000 billed output tokens, not a full-window prompt or a retrieval benchmark.

Costs are estimates at listed rates for uncached synchronous requests, not measured invoices; billed output includes reasoning. Tax, retries, discounts and negotiated capacity are excluded. Novita AI publishes this page using public sources, without a private workload benchmark.

OpenAI lists GPT-6.1 Sol at 1,050,000 tokens and Google lists Gemini 3.8 Flash at 1,048,576; AA rounds both to 1,000,000. The DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 and GLM-5.3 model cards state 1,000,000 tokens, while Novita AI’s endpoints for both accept 1,048,576.1013141518

This context ranking orders cards by officially published token capacity, then by the short uncached request cost for equal capacities. Official capacity and AA-tested context are separate columns; capacity is not a retrieval-accuracy result.
