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)

ModelInput TokenOutput 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.


🤖 Use Cases We’ve Already Built

🛡️ Privacy & Compliance Concerns

Persistent memory is powerful — but also brings compliance risks. At Scalevise, we’ve built safeguards around:

  • GDPR-compliant data retention

  • Scoped agent memory per workflow

  • Auditable memory access logs
