Gemini 3.1 Pro vs GPT-5.4 nano
Updated July 31, 2026. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty. They are not guarantees for a specific workload.
GPT-5.4 nano has the higher public score estimate, 65.99 versus 54.72, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner.
6 results are shared. Category rows based on different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.
Which one for your work
Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.

Shape of the matched evidence
Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.
Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

What each workload costs
Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.

If you already use one of these models
- Deployment change
- The models list different providers, so authentication, endpoint behavior, limits, and feature support may change.
- Quality signal
- GPT-5.4 nano has the higher public score estimate, 65.99 versus 54.72, but the 90% score intervals overlap.
- Workload cost
- Repository review: $0.136 vs $0.01375. Cache-heavy agent loop: $0.2 vs $0.0205.
- Context tradeoff
- Gemini 3.1 Pro has the larger documented window (1M).
Run the same representative tasks against both endpoints before changing production traffic.

Frequently asked questions
Which is better, Gemini 3.1 Pro or GPT-5.4 nano?
GPT-5.4 nano has the higher public score estimate, 65.99 versus 54.72, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.
Which is better for coding, Gemini 3.1 Pro or GPT-5.4 nano?
The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted coding basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a coding winner.
Which is better for agentic tasks, Gemini 3.1 Pro or GPT-5.4 nano?
The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted agentic tasks basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a agentic tasks winner.
Which costs less, Gemini 3.1 Pro or GPT-5.4 nano?
For the stated presets, chat costs $0.008 on Gemini 3.1 Pro and $0.00082 on GPT-5.4 nano; repository review costs $0.136 and $0.01375; the cache-heavy agent loop costs $0.2 and $0.0205. Costs use the listed standard API rates.
Which has the larger context window, Gemini 3.1 Pro or GPT-5.4 nano?
Gemini 3.1 Pro has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 400K.
