The OpenAI API gives developers programmatic access to all of OpenAI's models. Key endpoints: Responses API (the modern conversation interface, replacing the older chat completions endpoint), embeddings (vector search), DALL-E (image generation), Whisper (speech-to-text), TTS (text-to-speech), Sora (video). Pricing is per-token for LLMs, per-image for DALL-E, per-second for audio/video. Major features: structured outputs (JSON schema-validated returns), function calling (tool use), prompt caching (50% discount on cached prefixes), assistants/threads (managed conversation state). The API serves the majority of commercial LLM workloads in 2026, even as Anthropic and Google chip away.
