OpenAI: GPT-3.5 Turbo (batch)
GPT-3.5 Turbo is OpenAI’s text-and-code model family optimized for chat and other written tasks. Supply a clear instruction and source material to develop a reply, rewrite, concise explanation or proposed code fragment.
About the model
This description covers the model’s capabilities. Available in Ailoot inputs, outputs and options are listed for the selected method below.
GPT-3.5 Turbo is OpenAI’s text-and-code model family optimized for chat, with use in other written tasks as well. It accepts text and produces text. The family alias is distinct from the separately named 0613, 16K and Instruct choices, which have their own documented scope.
For a support reply, supply the user’s message, the reference information and the rules governing the answer. An illustrative request is to explain one part of a procedure and ask for a fact that the message does not establish. For editing, identify the reader, tone and statements to preserve. For code, provide the relevant fragment and the behavior to explain or propose changing.
OpenAI’s current family card lists a 16,385-token context window, a maximum output of 4,096 tokens and a knowledge cutoff of September 1, 2021. The input and generated response share the context budget. Keep the source material focused and define the answer length needed by the reader, especially when several earlier messages are relevant to a follow-up.
The producer’s current profile documents fine-tuning, while its format guidance includes GPT-3.5 Turbo among models using JSON mode. That mode targets valid JSON and does not guarantee a particular schema. If the next application stage needs fields, define their meanings and rules for missing values, then validate the returned structure and content against the supplied text.
For repeated work, retain the instruction and change the input-specific material. Request a concrete result such as a proposed reply, short summary, edited section or extracted values. A useful response preserves the required facts and identifies an unresolved condition rather than filling it with unsupported detail. A later message can then refine the selected result without losing the task’s purpose.

Ailoot rates
Prices by configuration
Match each charge to the conditions shown. Use one rate for each set of alternative configurations.
| Configuration | Rate schedule | Context tokens, more than | Context tokens, up to and including | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Ailoot reserves an estimated amount before a request. After the result, it settles the final charge from measured usage. Streaming settlement uses the final usage record. How reservation and settlement work →

Keep all completed results
Keep every complete returned response, file and content part.
Preserve the full original status JSON, every result/custom_id and complete response or error body. Save completed results[] as JSONL without filtering.
If the original response needs checking
Preserve the original operation ID. 503 result_pending_check has X-Should-Retry:false; never resubmit an unknown original batch.
