GPT-4.1 mini

The smaller, faster GPT-4.1 variant for instruction following and tool calling with a 1M-token context window and no reasoning step, exposed as the gpt-4.1-mini alias over the gpt-4.1-mini-2025-04-14 snapshot through OpenAI's managed developer API, without downloadable model weights.

Boundary
This record represents the GPT-4.1 Mini release whose API page identifies gpt-4.1-mini-2025-04-14 as the fixed snapshot behind the gpt-4.1-mini alias. OpenAI's February 2026 retirement of GPT-4.1 mini from ChatGPT explicitly leaves the API unchanged, and the API deprecation page carries no entry for this snapshot as of review. ChatGPT, the GPT-4.1 and GPT-4.1 nano siblings, later GPT releases, fine-tuned derivatives, and the OpenAI API platform itself are separate service, application, or model boundaries.

Risk statements

The developer publishes no risk-threshold statement for this release. Absence is not evidence of safety.
