Model record
GPT-4.1 model overview
GPT-4.1 is a api model from OpenAI. It was released on April 14, 2025. Its strongest case is million-token context window, while buyers should account for no open weights.
GPT-4.1 benchmark snapshot
| Evaluation | Reported score | What it probes |
|---|---|---|
| MMLU-Pro | 83.7 | Broad knowledge and multi-step reasoning |
| GPQA Diamond | 66.3 | Graduate-level science reasoning |
| SWE-bench Verified | 54.6 | Verified real-repository issue resolution |
| LiveCodeBench | 44.7 | Contamination-aware competitive programming |
| SWE-Bench Pro | Not reported | Longer, harder professional software tasks |
| Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index | Not reported | Composite third-party capability index; version matters |
Scores are percentages reported by model creators or benchmark maintainers under varying settings. A blank is preferable to an inferred result. See our methodology.
GPT-4.1 strengths
- Million-token context window
- Reliable instruction following
- Competitive code editing
GPT-4.1 limitations
- No open weights
- Long prompts can still dilute retrieval accuracy
Editorial take: Benchmark rank should narrow a shortlist, not close a purchase. Run a private evaluation with representative prompts, failure cases, latency targets, and total token costs.
