Vision

Why it stands out

128K-token context window handles longer documents and multi-turn conversations without truncation.

Tool use support makes it viable for function-calling and agentic pipelines.

Multimodal input (vision) extends it beyond text-only workflows.

$0.03/M input makes it practical for always-on agents, batch processing, or high-volume classification.
