is it finally available on openrouter and what about fable 5.1
r_lee•37m ago
that's literally what the link is for...
kingstnap•42m ago
Its also available finally to Pro users! Just took 24 hours.
InsideOutSanta•31m ago
They gave out bankable resets for every day people on pro plans didn't get Astra. Given that, I wish they'd waited a few more days before activating it on my account :-D
wincy•24m ago
They haven’t activated Astra for me yet, I have two resets now. I’ve been using the opportunity to test out how good 5.6 Sol is at computer use asking it to generate stuff in Blender which has been… interesting

That's a pretty genius internal incentive to move fast.

Yeah, when I saw that Tweet I knew the person was saying it because they knew it'll be available within 24h.

is Azure for this actually ZDR?

Damn I am so hyped

I have GPT-6 access in Codex and OpenAI API now

I'm a Business plan user with Cyber verification enabled, FWIW.

embedding-shape•6m ago
Same just got access literally this minute, Pro user here, no Cyber verification but have passed my ID over to them back in 2024 or something, maybe at the ChatGPT 3 API launch or something?

Has there been anything published about if Astra uses different amount of usage from your subscription plan compared to Sol? Don't recall coming across that in the press release.

Astra is ridiculously expensive, unusable
algoth1•25m ago
Just got it. European plus user here. Only codex, no chatgpt
cute_boi•17m ago
I got it, but sadly no resets...
noob0053•10m ago
Yes, precisely why these models are useless, everyone will interact with an intermediary, models are just like chips.

You made an account just to post this?

I posted this in the other Astra thread but it's just fallen off the homepage, so...

Pelicans from Astra, plus 5.6 Sol, Terra, Luna for comparison: https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2026/gpt-6-and-5.6-p...

I think this is a genuinely interesting comparison grid. Astra may be more expensive but if you have a budget of 10 cents for a Pelican Astra low gives you something SO much better than the other models. Astra uses less tokens overall too, for better results.
