GPT-4.1 nano is the fastest and most cost-efficient version of OpenAI’s GPT-4.1 series, designed for low-latency and high-scale production workloads. It supports text and image inputs with text output, a 1,047,576-token context window, and up to 32,768 output tokens. With strong instruction following, tool calling, streaming, function calling, Structured Outputs, fine-tuning, and predicted outputs, GPT-4.1 nano is well-suited for lightweight assistants, classification, extraction, tagging, translation, simple tool-based workflows, batch processing, and applications that require fast responses at low cost.

These parameters come from the selected model form_schema. Switching models updates this list and the request example.
system_prompt?stringGlobal instructions or persona for the model.
prompt*stringimage_urls?arraySupports multi-image understanding (optional).
image_detail?stringtemperature?numberHigher values make output more random, lower more deterministic.
top_p?numberNucleus sampling threshold; an alternative to temperature.
presence_penalty?numberIncreases the tendency to talk about new topics.
frequency_penalty?numberReduces the likelihood of repeating the same text verbatim.
seed?numberA fixed seed yields more reproducible results (optional).
