What is GPT-6 Luna?

OpenAI released GPT-6 Luna on September 22, 2026, alongside GPT-6 Sol. It replaces GPT-5.6 Luna at roughly half the API price, and OpenAI positions it for efficient, repeatable work where speed and cost matter more than maximum depth: summarizing documents, extracting information, and answering quick questions.

One detail stands out: Luna has the newest knowledge cutoff in the GPT-6 family (May 18, 2026), newer than both GPT-6 Sol and the flagship GPT-6 Astra. For everyday questions about recent events, the cheapest model can know more than the expensive ones, although for anything current you should still turn on web search.

API prices are what developers pay OpenAI directly. In AimiChat you pay a flat plan price instead and do not need your own API key. Limits per message and per day depend on your plan.

What GPT-6 Luna is good at

  • Everyday questions. Quick explanations, definitions, rewrites and short answers where you want a response in seconds rather than a long deliberation.
  • Summaries and extraction. Pulling the key points, dates, names or figures out of a pasted document, email thread or article.
  • Drafting. First drafts of emails, messages, outlines and social posts that you will edit yourself.
  • Image questions. Reading a screenshot, a chart or a photo of a page and answering questions about it.

When to use a different model

  • Hard multi-step reasoning. Proofs, tricky logic puzzles and decisions with many interacting constraints benefit from a larger model. Try Claude Sonnet 5 or GPT-6 Sol.
  • Large coding tasks. Luna handles snippets and small fixes well, but multi-file changes and code review are a better fit for GPT-6 Sol or Claude Opus 5.5.
  • Long, polished writing. For reports and long-form pieces where tone and structure matter, Claude Sonnet 5 usually needs fewer edits.
