multilingual Strong

Upstage docs: Korean, English and Japanese input and output, with "fluent Korean alongside strong English and Japanese". Not separately benchmarked here.

cost efficiency Strong

$0.10 / 1M input, $0.40 / 1M output, $0.01 cached input at list (upstage.ai/pricing); 70% off to 2026-10-10, then 50% off to 2026-10-22.

Operator guidance

Upstage's low-cost agent model, a step below Solar Pro 4 at a third of its list price. Pick it for high-volume tool-calling and structured-output steps, especially with Korean or Japanese text. Escalate to Solar Pro 4 for harder multi-step work. At the same input price, compare with GPT-6 Luna and Step 3.5 Flash.
