Editorial Analysis

Profile. o1-preview is a premium-tier model from OpenAI at $66.00/M output tokens. Benchmark scores (e.g. Coding Index 34.0) suggest it targets workloads where correctness matters more than cost — long-running agents, code generation at scale, and complex multi-step reasoning.

Cost model. For a workload of 1M input tokens + 100K output tokens, o1-preview costs $23.10 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.
