OpenAI releases GPT-6.1 Sol
Teams can test the new route without a higher headline token tier, but product-surface access, tools, agent persistence, review and complete cost still need migration evidence.

GPT-6.1 Sol, explained.
GPT-6.1 Sol is designed for agentic coding, computer use and professional workflows where teams want a newer sol route at the existing $2/$10 token tier. HubAI treats it as a workflow purchase rather than a novelty: the relevant question is whether it produces an acceptable result repeatedly, with controls your team can understand and a cost that remains predictable after the trial ends.

Replay ten frozen GPT-6 Sol tasks with the same tools, permissions, reasoning settings and budget. Record accepted results, unsupported output, tool failures, retries, persistence after correction, latency, reviewer minutes and complete billed cost before changing production traffic.
No launch-day score.
HubAI will publish a score only after the same representative tasks have been run against current alternatives. Vendor benchmarks are not treated as an editorial rating.
Cost reality
The subscription price is only the starting point. HubAI evaluates usage limits, failed attempts and the work needed to produce one usable result. Pricing changes frequently, so the structure and verification date matter more than a headline price.
Budget for the result, not the plan badge.

A safer four-step trial
- Start with one narrow job that matches GPT-6.1 Sol's strongest use case.
- Prepare approved source material, examples and a clear acceptance standard.
- Run three realistic tasks and record attempts, correction time and export quality.
- Keep human approval before publishing, sending or acting on the result.

What to check before adoption.
Do not place confidential, personal or rights-restricted material into GPT-6.1 Sol until your organisation has reviewed its current terms, retention settings and account controls. AI output can be plausible and still wrong; regulated, financial, legal and employment decisions require qualified human review.
