Editorial Analysis

Profile. GPT-5.4 mini (medium) is positioned in the mid-tier at $4.50/M output tokens. The benchmark profile is balanced — scoring across standard tests — making it a default choice for teams that need general-purpose reasoning without paying frontier-model prices.

Latency. On latency, GPT-5.4 mini (medium) reports 160 tok/s output speed and 8120ms time-to-first-token. Output speed is in the normal range — most chat and completion applications will be token-bound, not streaming-bound.

Cost model. For a workload of 1M input tokens + 100K output tokens, GPT-5.4 mini (medium) costs $1.20 per million input-equivalent requests. Multiply by your monthly request volume to project the bill, and compare against the speed/correctness profile above to decide if the trade-off is worth it for your workload.
