GPT-5.5 vs Amazon Nova Pro
Benchmarks, API pricing and specs, head to head. Data updated 2026-06-10.
OpenAI · Apr 2026
OpenAI's flagship reasoning model with a 1M-token context window, built for hard coding, science and long-horizon agentic work.
Amazon · Dec 2024
AWS's house multimodal model — chosen for Bedrock-native integration and AWS billing more than for benchmark wins.
The verdict
These two models don't yet share verified results on the benchmarks we track, so judge them on specs, pricing and intended use. On price the gap is dramatic: Amazon Nova Pro works out roughly 8.0x cheaper per blended million tokens. GPT-5.5 also takes 1M of context versus 300K for Amazon Nova Pro.
