OpenAI Enhances AI with o3 and o4-mini Models

Intelligence: OpenAI has introduced its latest AI models, o3 and o4-mini, designed to significantly enhance reasoning and problem-solving capabilities through improved tool integration.

• The new o3 model represents a significant advancement in AI reasoning, excelling in coding, math, science, and visual perception, achieving state-of-the-art results on various academic benchmarks.

• o3 has demonstrated a 20% reduction in major errors compared to previous models, particularly in programming and complex analytical tasks.

• o4-mini, a smaller and cost-effective model, outperforms its predecessor, o3-mini, especially in non-STEM tasks while offering higher usage limits.

• Both models can now handle visual inputs, allowing users to upload images for analysis, which enhances their problem-solving capabilities across modalities.

• The models are trained to strategically employ various tools (like web search and code execution) based on task requirements, enabling them to handle more complex queries.

You’ve heard the hype. Now it’s time for results

After two years of siloed experiments, proofs of concept that fail to scale, and disappointing ROI, most enterprises are stuck. AI isn't transforming their organizations — it’s adding complexity, friction, and frustration.

But Writer customers are seeing a positive impact across their companies. Our end-to-end approach is delivering adoption and ROI at scale. Now, we’re applying that same platform and technology to bring agentic AI to the enterprise.

This isn’t just another hype train that doesn’t deliver. The AI you were promised is finally here — and it’s going to change the way enterprises operate.

See real agentic workflows in action, hear success stories from our beta testers, and learn how to align your IT and business teams.
