Short answer
A free guide to using GPT-6.1 Terra for business growth in October 2026: why a fast, cheap model helps growth, growth audits, customer insight at scale, faster experiments, computer use for operations, scaling content and outreach, analytics, team adoption, costs, and safeguards.
Growth comes from running more good experiments, faster. GPT-6.1 Terra, released October 26, 2026, is fast and costs $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens in the API, so you can use AI across more of the business without large bills.
Cheaper, faster AI means more tests, more insight, and quicker learning.
