gpt-oss-safeguard-20b vs Extract: which should you choose in 2026?

gpt-oss-safeguard-20b (by OpenAI) and Extract (by Scaledown) are compared below. Here is how they stack up on benchmarks, price, and capabilities, and which one to pick in 2026.

There are not enough shared, protocol-compatible benchmark results to declare a performance leader.

Extract is about 4.4× cheaper on a blended 3:1 input/output basis ($0.03 vs $0.13125 per 1M tokens).

Extract has the larger context window (1,000,000 tokens vs 131,072 tokens).

Choose gpt-oss-safeguard-20b if…

  • • you need a model with explicit reasoning support

Choose Extract if…

  • • lower blended API cost matters for your workload
  • • you work with longer documents, transcripts, or codebases
  • • you need image inputs

The benchmark count includes only results measured with a matching benchmark version and protocol. Arena scores are shown separately. Missing, preliminary, and incompatible data is not treated as a controlled win. Published point-score comparisons are labeled separately when protocol details are incomplete. For text-output models, the verdict also compares token pricing and context windows.
