Text Embedding 3 Small turns text of up to about 8 pages into a fingerprint of its meaning, so search finds passages that mean the same thing even when the words differ. It replaces the older ada-002 and is the sensible default for search over your documents, grouping similar messages or labelling them.
GPT-5 Mini (batch)
by OpenAIReleased 7 August 2025
GPT-5 Mini reads text and pictures and writes text back, keeping about 400 pages in mind, and it thinks before answering and can use connected tools. It is a scaled-down GPT-5 for lighter thinking jobs, keeping GPT-5's instruction handling and safety training at quicker speed, and it succeeds o4-mini. Pick it for chat features, pulling out details and routine coding help that still need some thought.
