Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
o3 Pro supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
OpenAI
GPT-5.2 Codex is a coding-specialized variant from the GPT-5.2 family, designed for software engineering workflows including automated code generation, multi-file editing, and agentic development. It builds on GPT-5.2's improved instruction following and long-context capabilities, with optimizations specifically targeting programming tasks and agentic software workflows.
OpenAI
OpenAI o3-pro, released by OpenAI in June 2025, is an extended reasoning model from the o3 family that applies more compute per response to deliver deeper, more thorough answers on complex problems. It features a 200K token context window, 100K maximum output tokens, and vision capabilities. o3-pro targets research-grade reasoning tasks, extended coding sessions, and applications where accuracy on difficult problems justifies higher inference cost and latency.
