AI Model Comparison
Side-by-side comparison of pricing, context window, benchmarks, capabilities, and license. Every figure comes from the developer's own pages, last checked on ; each model's page lists its sources. A figure we could not source shows as a dash.
Model A — Google DeepMind
Gemini 4 Carbon is a Google model, available to paying developers in the Gemini API from November 10, 2026, which Google describes as its frontier model for long-horizon agentic work and its strongest in cybersecurity. Based on Gemini 4 Argon, it takes text, image, audio and video input, returns text, and has a March 2026 knowledge cutoff.
Model B — OpenAI
GPT-6 Luna is a reasoning model from OpenAI, released on September 22, 2026, which OpenAI describes as its most efficient model for focused, high-volume tasks. It takes text and image input, returns text, and has a May 18, 2026 knowledge cutoff.

Bold green values indicate the winner on that dimension where comparison is meaningful (lower price wins; bigger context wins; more open license wins; newer date wins). Prices are the ones each developer lists today; a model it no longer prices has none.
