Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
GPT-5 Pro supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
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.
Alibaba / Qwen
Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct is the flagship of Alibaba's Qwen2.5 series, a 72-billion-parameter open-weight model released in September 2024 after training on 18 trillion tokens spanning code, mathematics, and multilingual text. It offers strong generalist performance across coding, instruction-following, and structured reasoning while remaining fully open-weight under Apache 2.0 — a combination that made it a widely referenced model in open-source evaluations and community benchmarking. The 128K context window and built-in structured output support made it a common choice for document analysis and multi-step agentic pipeline development.
