OpenAI launches Decisions API that reduces complex evaluations to yes, no, or pick one
OpenAI’s Decisions API, in public beta on gpt-6-luna, returns yes/no, category, or scale judgments.
OpenAI launched the Decisions API in public beta, saying it evaluates text, images, or both about ten times faster than the Responses API. Only gpt-6-luna is supported, priced at $0.10 per million input tokens with free output tokens. Responses cover yes/no probabilities, predefined categories, and scale ratings, with zero-data retention and HIPAA-compliant options in the US and Europe. OpenAI also cut paid API tiers from five to three—Build, Launch, and Grow—with monthly limits of $500, $5,000, and $200,000.

OpenAI announced two updates to its API platform. The new Decisions API evaluates text, images, or both, running about ten times faster than the Responses API. It's in public beta now, with general availability coming soon. Only gpt-6-luna is supported so far, at $0.10 per million input tokens. Output tokens are free.
The API handles three response types: yes/no probabilities, picks from predefined categories, and scale-based ratings. Use cases include damage detection in photos, automatic customer inquiry routing, and document classification, OpenIA says. It supports zero-data retention and HIPAA-compliant use in the US and Europe. The Decisions API is likely OpenAI's response to the mini-trend of "decision models" that Jev kicked off in mid-September.
OpenAI also cut its paid API tiers from five down to three: Build, Launch, and Grow. Organizations move up automatically when their total credit purchases hit the next threshold. Monthly usage limits sit at $500, $5,000, and $200,000.
