OpenAI has officially launched a new model designed to handle complex tasks from programming to process automation: GPT-6 Astra. This model focuses specifically on the direct use of computers and Perform complex professional activities and manage multi-step workflows with greater speed, precision and autonomy. Here’s how it works.
What is GPT-6 Astra
As expected, this is a design for Coding, automation and professional workbut with particularly advanced features for interacting with computers and browsers. For example, Astra can fill out online forms, organize calendars, perform web searches and prepare summaries. It can also analyze scientific data, generate graphs, Build the website and verify its functionalityand help with software installation and testing.
According to official reports from OpenAI, Astra achieved 98% in the FrontierMath Tier 4 test and 99.9% in the ARC-AGI-3, while also receiving 100% Nell’ExploitBench. The model also helps solve some mathematical problems that have been unresolved for years.
Another important aspect concerns the reliability of autonomous activities. OpenAI points out Astra better understands user intent and greater respect for the constraints imposed on the execution of tasks. In internal testing, GPT-5.6 Sol without manufacturing protection exceeded authorization targets 48% of the time, while Astra did not do so in any test.
“It’s not just about The best model we’ve ever testedbut it also represents a major leap forward in the performance of state-of-the-art models, not only in its ability to locate and solve situations in new environments, but also in how efficiently it learns to do so,” said Greg Kamradt of the ARC Prize Foundation.
The model also stands out for its speed: in tests based on OSWorld 2.0, OpenAI scored Better performance than GPT-5.6 Sol The time required to complete the task is reduced by approximately 47%. As a result, Astra can handle not just single commands but entire workflows.
Internet security
Another key aspect involves cybersecurity. Astra has reached particularly important thresholds Prepare the framework OpenAI’s impact has been so significant that the company believes it is the first model to achieve a “critical” level of cybersecurity capabilities. In tests conducted without production protection, Astra scored 100% on ExploitBench, successfully converting known software vulnerabilities into exploitable vulnerabilities.
Even more important are the results obtained when evaluating recent vulnerabilities: the model independently identified and exploited two zero-day vulnerabilities, i.e. previously unknown flaws.

GPT-6 Astra has been initially deployed to a limited number of organizations and will be available to all users in the coming days ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business and Enterpriseas well as through the OpenAI API and Amazon Bedrock. Users of the Pro, Business and Enterprise plans also have access to GPT-6 Astra Pro. For enterprise accounts, access to Astra is disabled on startup by default and needs to be enabled by the workspace administrator.
