    Best for
    Builders who want near-frontier agentic coding and computer use without Astra's full token price. Not ideal for: Free/Go ChatGPT users (not in launch rollout) or workloads that need the absolute top Astra tier.

    Review notes

    Context from the listing review and editorial research.

    NEW tool. Model surface for the directory (like Muse Spark). DISAMBIGUATION: not GPT-6 Astra, not GPT-6 Luna, not OpenAI Dots (agent product). Consumer chat still routes through ChatGPT; this entry covers the Sol 6.1 model/API/Work/Codex surface. Last verified: October 2026.
