GPT-5 Is Live: What It Means for Business Automation, AI Agents, and Compliance


The wait is over — GPT-5 is officially here. More than just a bigger model, GPT-5 marks a shift in how businesses can automate workflows, build agentic systems, and manage memory across user interactions. At Scalevise, we’ve already begun integrating GPT-5 across client environments, and the impact is significant.
In this article, we break down what GPT-5 offers, how it compares to alternatives like Claude Opus 4.1, and how your team can start using it to gain a competitive edge.
🧠 What’s New in GPT-5?
GPT-5 builds on the success of GPT-4 with several groundbreaking features:
Persistent memory support: The model remembers user data across sessions (opt-in, per-user).
Agent orchestration: GPT-5 can run agents natively through the ChatGPT Agents API.
Scalable token context: Up to 1M tokens, depending on model tier.
Improved reasoning & tool use: Enhanced function-calling, JSON mode, and task completion.
GPT-5 is now available through:
ChatGPT (Free, Plus, Pro, and Team plans)
OpenAI API: GPT-5, GPT-5 Mini, GPT-5 Nano
💰 Pricing Breakdown (API)
Model | Input Token | Output Token |
GPT‑5 | $1.25 | $10.00 |
GPT‑5 Mini | $0.25 | $2.00 |
GPT‑5 Nano | $0.05 | $0.40 |
These tiers make GPT-5 accessible for both startups and enterprise workflows.
