If you’ve ever found yourself wishing that ChatGPT was a little bit quicker on the uptake, OpenAI seems to be answering your prayers.
The AI lab has rolled out a new mode called Ultrafast , which it says is designed to seriously accelerate the pace at which its latest and most powerful model, GPT-5.6 Sol , accomplishes its work.
The company says that Ultrafast can work at 14x the speed of standard processing, delivering up to 750 output tokens — such tokens represent the distinct pieces of text generated by an LLM when it interacts with a human — per second.
“Until now, getting real-time speed typically meant choosing a smaller or more specialized model,” the company said in the blog post on Thursday. “Ultrafast points to progress in a new direction: more useful work per second.”
OpenAI’s competitors, like Anthropic, have similarly launched accelerated versions of their models. Claude has fast mode , although it doesn’t deliver the kind of speed that OpenAI is offering here.
OpenAI suggests that this high-octane version of GPT-5.6 Sol can be deployed across a number of different corporate workflows, most notably incident response, customer service and support, financial market analysis, and e-commerce, among other relevant areas.
Ultrafast, which is currently being released in preview, is being powered by OpenAI’s partnership with chipmaker Cerebras. Currently, that preview is only being made available to a small group of customers, although OpenAI says that it will expand access to the feature as “capacity grows.”
