<\/p>\nOn July 24, 2026, Anthropic released Claude Opus 5 \u2014 already the company\u2019s fourth new model in less than two months. The main feature of the release is simple: performance close to the top-tier Claude Fable 5, but at half the price. We break down what changed and who this model is best suited for.<\/p>\n
Opus 5 is the new mid-to-high-tier version in the Claude lineup, replacing Claude Opus 4.8. According to Anthropic, the model comes close to the level of Claude Fable 5\u2019s \u201cfrontier\u201d intelligence across many tasks, while remaining more affordable.<\/p>\n
The model immediately became the default model in Claude Max and the most powerful available option in Claude Pro. Developers can call it through the API under the name claude-opus-5.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Claude Opus 5 costs $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens \u2014 exactly the same as the previous Opus 4.8 model. Compared with Claude Fable 5, which costs $10\/$50 per million tokens, this is exactly half the price while offering similar performance on many tasks.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
One of the main practical new features is the ability to switch the model\u2019s \u201ceffort\u201d level: low, medium or high. This allows users to balance response speed\/cost and depth of analysis themselves, depending on the complexity of the specific task.<\/p>\n
Anthropic also notes that the model has become easier to use \u2014 it requires fewer clarifying prompts, independently checks its own work and recovers from errors without user intervention.<\/p>\n
