Claude Opus 5.5
Claude Opus 5.5, launched 22 September 2026, is Anthropic's current Opus-line flagship, replacing Opus 5. It performs at roughly the level of Claude Fable 5.1 on most work while costing 40% less to run than Opus 5, at $4 input / $20 output per million tokens (both 20% down, cache reads cut 60% to $0.20). It leads on Terminal-Bench 4.0, GDPval-AA v2.1 and Humanity's Last Exam, and is the first Opus model to ship with Fable-5.1-class cybersecurity, biology and distillation safeguards.
Claude Sonnet 5.5
Claude Sonnet 5.5, released 28 September 2026, is the second model in Anthropic's Claude 5.5 family and the faster, lower-cost complement to Claude Opus 5.5. It keeps Sonnet 5's $2 input / $10 output per million tokens ($0.20 cache reads) while generating output over 30% faster, and scores 70.6% on Terminal-Bench 4.0, above Opus 5.5's 66.4%. It has a 1M-token context window, 128K max output, adaptive thinking, and is the first Sonnet with cyber and anti-distillation classifiers.
