GPT-4.1 mini

by OpenAI

Deprecated budget cheap tier
Deprecated — shuts down . Still purchasable until then, but the provider has announced end-of-life. Don't start new work on it. Migration target: GPT-6 Luna. Full deprecation status & replacements →
Availability: OpenAI announced on 2026-10-14 that it will shut down gpt-4.1-mini-2025-04-14 on 2027-01-14. That is every snapshot behind the gpt-4.1-mini alias, so the alias stops working on that date too. OpenAI names gpt-6-luna as the replacement. Until then it is still sold at the price shown. Checked against OpenAI's deprecations page on 2026-10-18.

Price receipt

No confirmed receipt. We hold dated captures of OpenAI's pricing page, but none of them tied GPT-4.1 mini to the price above on that page, so we do not claim this number is sourced. This model is deprecated and shuts down — while it remains purchasable, confirm the current rate on the provider's page before relying on it.
