OpenAI has launched a new Streaming option for its o1-preview and o1-mini models, significantly enhancing functionality for developers.

This feature is now accessible to all developers on paid tiers, broadening its availability.

The streaming capability allows developers to send responses back to clients in real-time, facilitating the delivery of partial results.

To aid in this process, OpenAI provides official Node and Python libraries that simplify the parsing of streaming events.

OpenAI has implemented this streaming functionality using the Server-sent events standard, ensuring a reliable connection for data transmission.
