PydanticAI also supports OpenAI's [Responses API](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses) through the [`OpenAIResponsesModel`][pydantic_ai.models.openai.OpenAIResponsesModel] class.

The Responses API has built-in tools that you can use instead of building your own:
- [Web search](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/tools-web-search)
- [File search](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/tools-file-search)
- [Computer use](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/tools-computer-use)

!!! warning "Work in progress"
We currently don't support the native OpenAI tools listed above in the `OpenAIResponsesModel` class.

You can learn more about the differences between the Responses API and Chat Completions API in the [OpenAI API docs](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/responses-vs-chat-completions).

The Responses API has built-in tools that you can use instead of building your own:

- [Web search](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/tools-web-search): allow models to search the web for the latest information before generating a response.
- [File search](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/tools-file-search): allow models to search your files for relevant information before generating a response.
- [Computer use](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/tools-computer-use): allow models to use a computer to perform tasks on your behalf.

You can use the [`OpenAIResponsesModelSettings`][pydantic_ai.models.openai.OpenAIResponsesModelSettings]
class to make use of those built-in tools:

```python {title="openai_responses_model_settings.py"}
from openai.types.responses import WebSearchToolParam # (1)!

from pydantic_ai import Agent
from pydantic_ai.models.openai import OpenAIResponsesModel, OpenAIResponsesModelSettings

model_settings = OpenAIResponsesModelSettings(
openai_builtin_tools=[WebSearchToolParam(type='web_search_preview')],
)
model = OpenAIResponsesModel('gpt-4o')
agent = Agent(model=model, model_settings=model_settings)

result = agent.run_sync('What is the weather in Tokyo?')
print(result.data)
"""
As of 7:48 AM on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, in Tokyo, Japan, the weather is cloudy with a temperature of 53°F (12°C).
"""
```

1. The file search tool and computer use tool can also be imported from `openai.types.responses`.
