GPT-6.1 Sol vs GPT-6 Astra vs GPT-6 Luna: Which One to Use
On OpenAI's own evaluations, GPT-6.1 Sol matches GPT-6 Astra on DeepSWE v1.1 and comes within 2.1 points of Astra on OSWorld 2.0 at maximum reasoning effort, while Astra scored above GPT-6.1 Sol on Terminal-Bench Science 0.1, at 68.1%. Independent leaderboards also put the two close: Artificial Analysis gives Astra 53 and Sol 52 on its Intelligence Index, and LMArena's text leaderboard gives Sol 1484 and Astra 1475 with overlapping ranges (as of October 2026). GPT-6 Luna scores 38 on the same Artificial Analysis index. A practical default is Sol for coding, computer-use and document work, with Astra for the hardest research tasks, which is where OpenAI recommends Astra. On ModelFold, Sol costs less than Astra; each model's pricing card has the details.
