Availability

Not enough data yet

We have not collected enough health probes for this model to publish an uptime or latency figure. A percentage from a handful of samples is fabricated precision, so none is shown until the sample count supports one.

How o3 is billed

Billed at the provider's list price, with no per-token markup.
