OpenAI GPT-5 Ultrafast mode launch

Overview

OpenAI has introduced ‘Ultrafast’, a new API service tier designed to run its GPT-5. 6 Sol model at significantly higher speeds. Powered by Cerebras’ Wafer-Scale Engine technology, the mode can generate up to 750 output tokens per second, which is up to 14 times faster than standard processing.

This advancement aims to eliminate the traditional trade-off between model intelligence and response speed by allowing access to the full reasoning capabilities of GPT-5. 6 Sol with ultra-low latency. The service is currently in a limited preview for a select group of API customers in sectors such as financial research, coding, customer support, and e-commerce.

In performance benchmarks, Cerebras reported that the Ultrafast mode completed ‘Humanity’s Last Exam’—a 2,500-question PhD-level test—in approximately 11 hours and 11 minutes, which was notably faster than comparable performance from Anthropic’s Claude models. OpenAI is also utilizing the tier internally for time-sensitive tasks like incident response and log analysis.
