GPT-6 Astra
A good performance/compliance balance for a European company.
Overview
GPT-6 Astra is OpenAI's latest general-purpose model, built around coding, agentic workflows and an always-on reasoning mode, with a context window said to reach one million tokens - a figure OpenAI has not yet confirmed. It ships first through a Trusted Access Program limited to enterprise customers, so independent testing remains scarce at launch. Like the rest of OpenAI's lineup, it runs on US-based infrastructure with no on-premise option, meaning data leaves the EU by default unless a specific contract states otherwise.
