OpenAI Launches Decisions API for Structured Agentic Logic and Outcome Prediction

Something you can actually use or run today.

On October 6, 2026, OpenAI launched the Decisions API, which handles yes/no, categorical, and numerical prediction tasks with pricing based on input tokens.

It attempts to standardize a common use case for LLMs—choosing between options—into a specialized, low-cost endpoint.

AILookup take

This feels like a wrapper for structured output that should have been a free enhancement to the main API. It is useful for cost optimization but offers no new core capability.

Whether competitors like Anthropic release a 'Choices' endpoint to match the aggressive pricing.
