Effective July 30, 2026, Amazon Bedrock lowered on-demand inference costs for OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Luna by 80% and GPT-5.6 Terra by 20% following OpenAI’s own pricing changes. Luna targets fast, high-volume workloads with multi-step workflow capabilities, suitable for content processing and automation tasks, while Terra balances reasoning ability, speed, and cost for general production workloads.

These price cuts allow customers to deploy these foundation models more extensively, lowering per-task costs and enabling handling of larger workloads. Pricing adjustments apply automatically in supported US regions via the Bedrock OpenAI Responses API without customer intervention.
