GPT-5 in Azure AI Foundry: Future of AI Apps & Agents

GPT-5 Arrives in Azure AI Foundry

OpenAI’s newest big brain, GPT-5, is now ready for everyone inside Azure AI Foundry. This isn’t just another chat model; it’s the smartest one yet, tested across major benchmarks and built to handle real-world tasks. Microsoft’s platform enables businesses to transition from small-scale test projects to full-scale rollouts safely, quickly, and with cost savings.

Four Models for Different Jobs

Inside Azure AI Foundry, GPT-5 comes in four “sizes,” each with special powers.

  • GPT-5: the full thinker, great for deep analytics and code generation, with huge context memory.

  • GPT-5 mini: fast and smart, ideal for live apps and agents.

  • GPT-5 nano: super speedy with great Q&A skills, perfect for cost-sensitive or high-volume tasks.

  • GPT-5 chat: keeps conversations natural and remembers context for long chats.

The Model Router decides which one to use for each job, so you save time and up to 60% on costs.
