Model Card
Claude Opus 4.6 Fast is a high-speed configuration of Anthropic's most intelligent model, delivering up to 2.5x faster output token generation with no reduction in quality or capabilities.
It runs the same Opus 4.6 model — state-of-the-art on benchmarks like Terminal-Bench 2.0 for agentic coding, Humanity's Last Exam for multidisciplinary reasoning, and GDPval-AA for professional knowledge work — but optimized for lower latency at premium pricing ($30/$150 per MTok). It supports the full 1M token context window and 128k max output tokens.
Fast mode is ideal for latency-sensitive, interactive workflows such as rapid iteration, live debugging, and real-time agentic tasks where waiting on responses breaks your flow. For cost-sensitive or batch workloads, standard Opus 4.6 offers the same intelligence at lower cost.

Claude Opus 5
Claude Opus 5 is Anthropic's flagship model, released July 24, 2026 as the successor to Claude Opus 4.8. Anthropic positions it as approaching the performance of its higher-tier Claude Fable 5 model at roughly half the token cost, built for agentic coding, computer use, and long-horizon knowledge work. On the ARC-AGI-3 novel problem-solving benchmark, Opus 5 scores 30.2%, roughly four times GPT-5.6 Sol's 7.8% and twenty times Opus 4.8's 1.5%. On the GDPval-AA v2 knowledge-work benchmark, it reaches an Elo of 1,861, ahead of Fable 5 (1,747) and GPT-5.6 Sol (1,736). Priced at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens, unchanged from Opus 4.8, it offers a 1,000,000-token context window, 128,000-token max output, and tool calling. It fits developers building coding agents and automation pipelines that need strong reasoning at Opus-level pricing.
ChatClaude Opus 5 Fast
Claude Opus 5 Fast is a high-speed configuration of Anthropic's Opus 5 flagship model, generating output tokens at roughly 2.5x the speed of standard Opus 5. It runs the same Opus 5 model, which Anthropic says outperforms Opus 4.8 on agentic coding, computer use, and knowledge work, and approaches Fable 5's performance at roughly half the cost. Fast mode pricing is $10/$50 per million input/output tokens, twice the price of standard Opus 5 ($5/$25) and in line with what Opus 4.8 Fast cost. It supports the full 1M token context window and 128k max output tokens. Choose Opus 5 Fast for latency-sensitive agentic pipelines, live coding sessions, and real-time workflows where throughput matters. For cost-sensitive or batch workloads, standard Opus 5 offers the same intelligence at half the price.
ChatClaude Sonnet 5
Claude Sonnet 5 is Anthropic's newest Sonnet-tier model, released June 30, 2026 as the successor to Sonnet 4.6. Anthropic built it to be the most agentic Sonnet yet, with gains in planning, tool use, coding, and multi-step reasoning that bring it close to Opus 4.8 quality at a lower price. On SWE-bench Pro it scores 63.2%, up from Sonnet 4.6's 58.1% and ahead of GPT-5.5's 58.6%, though still behind Opus 4.8's 69.2%. On Terminal-Bench 2.1 it reaches 80.4% versus Sonnet 4.6's 67.0%, and on the OSWorld-Verified computer-use benchmark it posts 81.2% against Sonnet 4.6's 78.5%. It targets developers running agentic coding pipelines, automation workflows, and tool-heavy tasks who want most of Opus-tier capability without Opus pricing. Introductory pricing is $2/$10 per million input/output tokens through August 31, 2026, after which it reverts to the standard $3/$15 listed here.
