July 13, 2026GPT-5.6 Sol vs Terra vs Luna: an Azure routing playbook
OpenAI released the GPT-5.6 series on 9 July 2026 in three tiers: Sol for hard reasoning and long autonomous runs, Terra for everyday work and Luna for speed and cost, with same-day availability in Microsoft Foundry and a new preferred-model role in Microsoft 365 Copilot. This playbook maps Azure workloads to the right tier, works the token math in SEK and flags the Copilot subprocessor setting Swedish admins must review before 24 July.
