OpenAI on December 5, 2024, introduced o1-pro, a new version of its reasoning model family that the company says delivers its strongest performance yet on complex analytical tasks. Built on the o1 series, the model is designed to improve results in areas such as mathematics, coding, and scientific problem-solving, where multi-step reasoning is critical.
According to OpenAI, o1-pro has posted top scores on challenging benchmarks including AIME 2024 and GPQA Diamond, two widely watched tests used to measure advanced mathematical and science reasoning. The company is positioning the model as a tool for users who need more reliable performance on difficult, high-stakes work rather than general conversational output alone.
The model is available immediately to Pro and Team users through ChatGPT and the API, extending access to both individual power users and organizations. OpenAI says the release is aimed at enterprise and research applications, where stronger reasoning capabilities could support coding workflows, technical analysis, and scientific exploration.
The launch underscores the growing competition among AI developers to build models that can handle increasingly complex reasoning tasks with greater accuracy and consistency.
