GPT OSS Safeguard 120B is a language model developed by OpenAI. It's particularly well-suited for orchestrating tool-using agents that call APIs and external services, producing structured outputs for reliable data extraction, and handling large contexts of up to 128K tokens. Its 128K-token context window means you can pass in entire documents, codebases, or conversation histories without losing context.
As of Oct 2, 2026, GPT OSS Safeguard 120B costs $0.0066 per 1M input tokens and $0.027 per 1M output tokens on Qubax, versus $0.150 / $0.600 on OpenRouter (96% less on input). A typical 1,000 chat requests (2K tokens in, 500 out) come to about $0.03. 64 independent compute providers currently serve it, so requests fail over automatically. Pay with USDC, USDT, BTC, ETH or 200+ other coins — no credit card required.
