Full Analysis: GPT-5.2
What is GPT-5.2?
GPT-5.2 is an AI model developed by OpenAI, classified as a large language model (LLM). It is a multimodal model, capable of processing text, images, and potentially other media types. As a proprietary model, it is available via OpenAI's cloud API. With a context window of 400K tokens, it is suitable for processing long documents such as contracts, books, and complete codebases.
Pricing & Costs in 2026
GPT-5.2 is usage-based, priced at $1.75/1M input tokens and $14/1M output tokens. For context: 1 million tokens is approximately 750,000 words, or about 10 average-length books. The mid-range pricing balances quality and cost for most professional applications.
Benchmarks & Performance
GPT-5.2 was evaluated on 13 different benchmarks, covering categories like Agentic, Coding, Knowledge, Long Context, Math, overall, Reasoning, Tool Use. Results show exceptional performance across available evaluations.
It's important to note that benchmarks measure specific aspects and don't capture the full user experience. Factors like instruction adherence, behavior in long conversations, and real-world task quality vary significantly between models and aren't always reflected in standard scores.
Recommended Use Cases
GPT-5.2 is suitable for a wide range of AI applications: long document analysis (contracts, legal proceedings, codebases), automation with tool calling (API integration, databases, external systems), image and visual document analysis (OCR, diagrams, screenshots), multimodal processing combining text and images, complex reasoning, math problem solving, and logical analysis, text generation, summarization, translation, and general assistance.
Comparison with Alternatives
In the 2026 AI model ecosystem, GPT-5.2 competes directly with similarly capable models. Key competitors include Claude (Anthropic), Gemini (Google), and open source models like Llama (Meta) and Qwen (Alibaba). The choice between models depends on the specific use case, budget, latency requirements, and need for features like multimodality and tool calling.
