Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
GPT-5 Pro leads with 12.2% higher average benchmark score. Overall, GPT-5 Pro is the stronger choice for coding tasks.
OpenAI
GPT-5 mini, released by OpenAI in August 2025, is a smaller variant from the GPT-5 family that inherits GPT-5's unified reasoning architecture and multimodal capabilities at a reduced inference cost. It targets high-volume production use cases requiring a balance of intelligence and response speed, offering GPT-5 capabilities for applications where full GPT-5 inference costs are a concern.
OpenAI
GPT-5 Pro is an extended-reasoning variant from the GPT-5 family that applies more compute per response for deeper, more thorough answers on complex problems. It features the same 400K token context window and multimodal capabilities as GPT-5, with additional reasoning depth suited to research-grade analysis, advanced coding, and tasks requiring comprehensive, accurate outputs.
