GPT-4.1 Nano has about 255.8× the context window of the other in this pair.

GPT-4.1 Nano has 25475% more context capacity (1047K vs 4K tokens). GPT-4.1 Nano is 90% cheaper on input.

Quick verdicts

Short takeaways — validate with your own workloads.

  • Long document processing

    Use GPT-4.1 Nano. Its 1047K context fits entire documents without chunking (vs 4K).

  • RAG / high-volume retrieval

    Use GPT-4.1 Nano. Input tokens are 90% cheaper — critical when sending large retrieved contexts.

  • Long output (reports, code files)

    Use GPT-4.1 Nano. Its 32K max output lets you generate complete artifacts in one request.

Use a smaller model.
Get better results.

Mem0 gives your AI long-term memory so you stop re-sending context on every call. That means you can use a smaller, faster, cheaper model — and still get better answers.
