OpenAI’s September 1–2 announcements that Astra, its frontier multi-agent large language model, has reached the company’s “Critical” cybersecurity threshold under the Preparedness Framework have driven the strong market consensus around an immediate release. After pausing select training runs in August to bolster safeguards against misuse following the Hugging Face incident, OpenAI confirmed new controls, 100% ExploitBench performance, and zero-day discovery capabilities while stating it plans to make the model “available soon,” with advanced cyber features initially restricted to select testers via its Daybreak Blue program. Traders appear to interpret the timing of these verified safety clearances and the absence of further stated delays as pointing to a September 3 rollout rather than later windows.

This market will resolve according to the calendar date (ET) on which OpenAI's "Astra" model, or a model confirmed to be the same model referenced in the announcement described above, is made available to the general public.
A qualifying model must be named "Astra" (including variants or successor branding such as Astra 1, Astra 6, Astra X, GPT-6 Astra, or similar naming or rebranded versions) or be confirmed to be the same model referenced in the announcement by OpenAI or by a consensus of credible reporting.
Products labeled as GPT-5.7, GPT-6, or similar will only count if they are confirmed to be the same model referenced in the announcement.
For this market to resolve according to a given date, the qualifying model (as defined above) must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice.
The release must be either clearly defined and publicly announced by OpenAI as being accessible to the general public or otherwise made publicly accessible and explicitly labeled within the company's official website. Labeling errors, placeholder text, or version names displayed on the website that do not correspond to a model that is actually accessible to the general public will not qualify.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from OpenAI; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
