Listed features include structured outputs with JSON mode and JSON schema, function calling through Serverless Functions, and support for retrieval-augmented generation. Pricing is pay-per-use, billed per million tokens, with a free tier of 1,000,000 tokens for new customers. The service is aimed at developers building chatbots, agents, and OCR tools.
