Gemini 4 Hydrogen vs GPT-6.1 Terra: Overview

Gemini 4 Hydrogen

Gemini 4 Hydrogen is a multimodal model from Google, positioned as a successor to Gemini 3.8 Flash with stronger agent and coding capabilities at Flash-class speed.

GPT-6.1 Terra

GPT-6.1 Terra is an OpenAI model released on October 26, 2026 for visual reasoning, computer use and writing. It accepts text and image inputs and produces text, with a 1,050,000-token context window and up to 128,000 output tokens. OpenAI lists applications including matching product photographs to catalog entries, interpreting technical drawings and operating application screens.

The API exposes six reasoning effort settings: none, low, medium, high, xhigh and max. Medium is the default. The model supports structured outputs and tool calling through the Responses API. Vision Evals reports its Low and High results for text understanding, counting, identification, reasoning and object detection, using native OpenAI API inference. Terra is a proprietary model; its weights are not released.

Frequently Asked Questions

On Roboflow's Vision Evals, Gemini 4 Hydrogen performed better. It scores higher on 3 of the five vision tasks and averages 87.3% (#3 of 69) against 85.8% (#5 of 69) for GPT-6.1 Terra. These scores measure vision capabilities only; either model may perform differently on work outside this benchmark's tasks.

Yes. On the Vision Evals OCR benchmark at low effort, Gemini 4 Hydrogen leads with 86.7% against 81.9%. This is the widest gap between the two models across the benchmark's tasks.

GPT-6.1 Terra is cheaper to run. Across Roboflow's Vision Evals task mix it averaged $0.0033 per sample against $0.0094. Actual costs depend on your image sizes, prompts, and output length.

GPT-6.1 Terra is faster. Across Roboflow's Vision Evals it averaged 10.1s per inference against 13.2s. Latency varies with image size, prompt length, and provider load, so treat these as relative rather than guaranteed figures.

Yes. The comparison demo on this page runs both models on the same image side by side for image captioning and OCR in the free Roboflow Playground. You can try it instantly, and a free account unlocks unlimited runs.
