GPT-5.5 is OpenAI’s newest frontier model, designed for complex professional work, coding, tool-heavy agents, grounded assistants, long-context retrieval, and production-grade workflows. It supports text and image inputs with text output, a context window of up to 1,050,000 tokens, and up to 128,000 output tokens. With advanced reasoning controls, strong instruction following, precise tool use, structured outputs, and support for hosted tools such as web search, file search, code interpreter, image generation, computer use, MCP, and tool search, GPT-5.5 is well-suited for advanced software engineering, enterprise automation, research workflows, agentic systems, and customer-facing AI applications.
