Treat this as a split decision. Composer 2 makes more sense if you want the cheaper token bill; GPT-5.4 Pro is the better fit if agentic is the priority or you need the larger 1.05M context window.
Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 0 shared benchmark results across 0 evidence categories; 1 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.
Why this result
Composer 2 and GPT-5.4 Pro finish on the same BenchAlign overall score, so this is less about a single winner and more about where the edge shows up. The BenchAlign headline says tie; the benchmark table is where the real choice happens.
GPT-5.4 Pro is also the more expensive model on tokens at $30.00 input / $180.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.50 input / $2.50 output per 1M tokens for Composer 2. That is roughly 72.0x on output cost alone. GPT-5.4 Pro gives you the larger context window at 1.05M, compared with 200K for Composer 2.
