## Summary

Microsoft says Azure Content Understanding now supports the GPT-5.6, GPT-6, and GPT-6.1 model families for document, text, speech, and video workflows. Its evaluation data recommends GPT-6.1 Sol as the starting point for standard document extraction, with GPT-6 Luna for lower token cost and GPT-6 Astra for demanding documents. Microsoft advises testing each choice on your own workload before settling on a model.
