About GPT-5.4 Mini

As a closed-source model, GPT-5.4 Mini is not available as open weights and does not publish parameter counts. Its design focuses on efficient multimodal fusion across files, images, and text. The architecture supports extended context lengths to maintain coherence over lengthy combined inputs.

Strengths include seamless processing of diverse data types without requiring separate specialized tools. It enables unified analysis sessions that span visual and textual elements alongside document files. Typical usage covers document review with embedded images, long-form content generation conditioned on visual references, and multimodal data exploration tasks.

Quick start

OpenRouter's API is OpenAI-compatible — most SDKs work by just swapping the base URL. Only the model slug changes between models.

JavaScript · openai
import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://openrouter.ai/api/v1",
  apiKey: process.env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY,
});

const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "openai/gpt-5.4-mini",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
});

console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Model slug: openai/gpt-5.4-mini
