Combining structured outputs with search is the API feature I was looking for. Honestly crazy that it wasn’t there to start with - I have a project that is mostly Gemini API but I’ve had to mix in GPT-5 just for this feature.

I still use ChatGPT and Codex as a user but in the API project I’ve been working on Gemini 2.5 Pro absolutely crushed GPT-5 in the accuracy benchmarks I ran.

As it stands Gemini is my de facto standard for API work and I’ll be following very closely the performance of 3.0 in coming weeks.
