Model vs model
GPT-6.1 Terra vs GPT-6 Luna
GPT-6.1 Terra and GPT-6 Luna are both in llmwise. What each gets on every plan, what it reads, how it's served and what happens when its provider fails, from the catalog and the code that runs them.
Model prices and specs checked against OpenRouter's GPT-6.1 Terra page, OpenRouter's GPT-6 Luna page. Updated .
Short answer
GPT-6 Luna is an everyday model (60 messages a day on Pro); GPT-6.1 Terra draws on the monthly allowance (up to 250 messages a month on Pro). Beyond that, they read the same files and neither is easier to try. In our test runs, GPT-6.1 Terra passed 48 of the 50 prompts both answered and GPT-6 Luna 47; 3 prompts split them, most on math (5 to 4).
GPT-6.1 Terra vs GPT-6 Luna, prompt by prompt
Every prompt GPT-6.1 Terra and GPT-6 Luna both answered, compared directly, their biggest differences first. One run each, through OpenRouter: a wait depends on the provider and the load that day, so a lead under 10% counts as close.
Of the 50 prompts both answered, both passed 46, only GPT-6.1 Terra passed 2, only GPT-6 Luna passed 1, and neither passed 1. GPT-6.1 Terra answered sooner on 13 of the 50 and GPT-6 Luna on 22; the rest were within 10% of each other. The 50 replies cost $0.0345 on GPT-6.1 Terra and $0.0059 on GPT-6 Luna: 5.8× less on GPT-6 Luna.

The same prompts, sent to both through llmwise's own pipeline and checked the same way: five for each job. A bold count is the one that passed more. Messages: what each reply counted as on Pro. Cost: what OpenRouter charged us per reply, on average. Every prompt, and how it's scored.
Where they differed most, math: both replies to a prompt only one of them passed.
An everyday prompt: “Pens at 3 for $4”, in full.
GPT-6.1 Terra
Passed: Final answer 3 deals and 1 single pen, for 13.50.: right.
A 3-pen deal costs $4, less than the $4.50 cost of three single pens. So buy as many 3-pen deals as possible: 3 deals (9 pens) + 1 single pen = $12 + $1.50 = $13.50. Final answer: 3 deals and 1 single pen, for $13.50.

Failed: Final answer 2 bundles and 4 singles for 12; expected 13.5.
For 10 pens, compare buying 0–3 bundles of 3: - 0 bundles: 10 singles = $15 - 1 bundle: 7 singles = $14.50 - 2 bundles: 4 singles = $12 - 3 bundles: 1 single = $13.50 Final answer: 2 bundles and 4 singles for $12

GPT-6.1 Terra and GPT-6 Luna on every plan
Each plan's messages on it. Every plan starts with a 2-day free trial.
| Plan | Price | GPT-6.1 Terra | GPT-6 Luna |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plus | $10 a month | Up to 125 a month | 30 a day |
| Pro | $20 a month | Up to 250 a month | 60 a day |
| Max | $50 a month | Up to 800 a month | 120 a day |
| Ultra | $100 a month | Up to 1,800 a month | 200 a day |
| Studio | $200 a month | Up to 4,000 a month | 200 a day |
Prices don't include tax, which is added where it applies and shown before you pay. A paid plan's month is one allowance shared by every model, so each monthly count is the most you get if all of it goes to that model. It renews each billing period; everyday models refill daily at 00:00 UTC. Long chats count more per reply. How pricing works.
Every limit is published. Paid plans also have a monthly fair-use limit on AI cost: Plus $3.75, Pro $7.50, Max $20, Ultra $42, Studio $85. Using every message on your plan at typical sizes stays under it; very large messages and heavy research use it faster. Every limit, explained.
What differs
Messages on Pro
GPT-6 Luna is an everyday model (60 messages a day on Pro); GPT-6.1 Terra draws on the monthly allowance (up to 250 messages a month on Pro).

Images and PDFs
Both read images. Both take a PDF as the whole file, pages and all.
Free trial
GPT-6.1 Terra and GPT-6 Luna are both in the 2-day free trial of Plus or Pro.
Where messages go
Both are GPT models, served the same way. Sent to OpenAI directly.

GPT-6.1 Terra or GPT-6 Luna?
From the facts above and our test runs: the rest is how their answers suit your work, which one chat can show you.
Pick GPT-6 Luna: its messages come from the daily count (60 messages a day on Pro), so they leave the monthly allowance for bigger models.
