Write and analyze with GPT-5.5
GPT-5.5 is OpenAI's big generalist of the 5 generation: it understands faster what you are trying to do and carries a larger share of the work itself, chaining the steps of a composite task without being told every one. Writing, analysis, formatting, research: it does nearly everything, well, with a one-million-token context. In the canvas, hand it a messy brief and get a finished text back. It costs less than GPT-6 Astra for a close level on most requests; the latter only wins on the longest reasoning.
The generalist that carries the work
GPT-5.5 understands faster what you are trying to do and chains the steps of a composite task without being told every one: writing, analysis, formatting, research. One-million-token context, images and PDFs read, five dollars per million input tokens and thirty per million output.
In Imaginode's Text node, hand it a messy brief and get a finished text back, ready to feed the Image and Video nodes. It costs four times less than GPT-6 Astra for a close level on most requests; Astra only wins on the longest reasoning.

Frequently asked questions
GPT-5.5 or GPT-6 Astra?
GPT-5.5 by default: same context, same style, four times cheaper. Switch to GPT-6 Astra when a long task or a multi-step reasoning disappoints.
How much does a message sent to GPT-5.5 cost?
Around 7 credit(s) per message, that is $0.08 (1 credit = $0.012). The cost shows before sending, with no separate subscription and no API key to manage: the same credits pay for all 88 models in the catalog.
Do I need a separate subscription to use GPT-5.5?
No: GPT-5.5 is included in Imaginode, with no API key and no account with the provider. A single credit balance covers all 88 models, text, image, video and voice, and also powers the assistant that builds complete workflows.
Can I try GPT-5.5 for free?
Yes: signing up grants trial credits, no credit card required, and those credits never expire. Enough to test GPT-5.5 in real conditions before deciding on a plan or a top-up.
Do I need to install anything to use GPT-5.5?
No: GPT-5.5 runs server-side, in the browser, mobile included. Imaginode's node canvas wires its renders to the other models (references, camera, styles) with nothing to install.
