Model ID: `gpt-4.1-nano`

GPT-4.1 nano excels at instruction following and tool calling. It features a 
1M token context window, and low latency without a reasoning step.

Note that we recommend starting with [GPT-5 nano](/api/docs/models/gpt-5-nano) for 
more complex tasks.

## Model details

## Pricing

Pricing is based on the number of tokens used, or other metrics based on the model type. For tool-specific models, like search and computer use, there’s a fee per tool call. See details in the [pricing page](/api/docs/pricing).

## Rate limits

Rate limits ensure fair and reliable access to the API by placing specific caps on requests, tokens, audio duration, or other usage within a given time period. Your usage tier determines how high these limits are set and automatically increases as you send more requests and spend more on the API.

### Standard

| Tier | RPM | RPD | TPM | Batch queue limit |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Tier 1 | 500 | 10,000 | 200,000 | 2,000,000 |
| Tier 2 | 5,000 | - | 2,000,000 | 20,000,000 |
| Tier 3 | 5,000 | - | 4,000,000 | 40,000,000 |
| Tier 4 | 10,000 | - | 10,000,000 | 1,000,000,000 |
