Model Card
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. It launched at $2/$10 per million input/output tokens as introductory pricing through August 31, 2026, and that price has continued as the standard rate. Max output tokens increased from 64,000 to 128,000 after launch.

Claude Sonnet 5.5
Claude Sonnet 5.5 is a mid-tier model from Anthropic, released on September 28, 2026 and available through the API as anthropic/claude-sonnet-5-5. It accepts text, image, and PDF input, with a 1M token context window and up to 128k output tokens. Pricing is $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, the same as Claude Sonnet 5. Anthropic says it generates output more than 30% faster than Sonnet 5 and can cut the cost of a task by up to 30%, because it uses fewer tokens and fewer tool calls. Anthropic reports 70.6% on Terminal-Bench 4.0 (Sonnet 5: 10.3%) and 80.1% on OSWorld 2.1 (Sonnet 5: 57.0%). It is aimed at well-scoped everyday tasks, bug fixing, agentic coding, and producing documents, slides, and spreadsheets.
ChatClaude Opus 5.5
Claude Opus 5.5 is Anthropic's newest flagship model, released September 22, 2026 as the successor to Claude Opus 5. Anthropic positions it for agentic coding and long-running autonomous work. Reported benchmark scores include 66.4% on Terminal-Bench 4.0 (up from 52.3% for Opus 5), 54.4% on FrontierCode, 40% on AutomationBench (up from 26.9%), 81.8% on the OSWorld 2.0 computer-use benchmark, and 67.7% on Humanity's Last Exam with tools. It runs about 30% faster than Opus 5 and costs roughly 40% less on typical workloads, at $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens, a 1M-token context window, and 128K max output tokens. That combination of long-horizon coding performance, multimodal input (text, image, PDF), tool calling, and lower cost makes it a fit for developers building coding agents, codebase-wide migrations, and research or analysis pipelines through the API.
ChatClaude Fable 5.1
Claude Fable 5.1 is Anthropic's successor to Claude Fable 5, released September 1, 2026, about three months after Fable 5. Anthropic also released a companion model, Claude Mythos 5.1, available only through trusted access programs; both share the same underlying model with different safety safeguards. On SWE-bench Pro it scores 81.2%, ahead of Fable 5's 80% and Mythos 5's 80.3%. On Terminal-Bench-Science, a scientific-research agentic benchmark, it reaches 52.6%, more than double Fable 5's 24.7% and ahead of GPT-5.6 Sol's 22.4%. On Terminal-Bench 4.0 for agentic coding it scores 55.8%, versus 42.0% for Fable 5 and 37.3% for GPT-5.6 Sol. Priced at $10/$50 per million input/output tokens, unchanged from Fable 5, with cache reads cut 75% to $0.25 per million tokens. It offers a 1,000,000-token context window, 128,000-token max output, and tool calling. It fits developers running long-horizon agentic coding and research pipelines who want Fable-tier reasoning at lower cost.
