Four models build 'Floating Kingdom': Astra fastest but priciest
Given the same single-file HTML prompt, GPT-6 Astra finished fastest at 40 minutes for about $20.76, versus Kimi at 25 minutes for $3 and DeepSeek at 2 hours for $0.9.
Opus 5.5 vs Deepseek V4.1 Flash-1017 vs GPT 6 Astra vs Kimi K3.1 Pro gave all four models the exact same prompt: build "The Floating Kingdom" as a single HTML file. - Opus: 1hr 15 mins ~ $12 - Deepseek: 2hrs ~ $0.9 - Astra: 40 mins ~ $20.76 - Kimi: 25 mins ~$3 DeepSeek took 2 hours and still won on value. speed is overrated when the bill is 23x smaller. which one would you go for here?
