Best GPT-5.2 alternatives
Users may seek alternatives to GPT-5.2 because of its high output price of $14 per million tokens and limitations such as high resource use with maximum context and lack of native audio or video support. This list covers seven other multimodal models with details on their intelligence indices, speeds, prices, contexts, strengths, and limitations compared to the base model.
Multimodal model with 1M-token context for complex text and image tasks.
OpenAI's multimodal model for large-scale text and image tasks.
Google's fast multimodal model for efficient text, image, and video tasks.
It provides a much larger context of 2000000 tokens and handles text, images, and files at $6 per million tokens with multi-agent coordination, though its intelligence index is unknown and setups may add latency.
OpenAI's closed multimodal model for large-scale text and image tasks.
OpenAI's multimodal model for large-scale text, image and file tasks.
Multimodal model handling images, text, and files over vast contexts.
OpenAI's multimodal model for large-scale image, text, and file processing.
