Claude Opus 4.6

Previous

The flagship of the Claude 4 generation. 1M-token context is GA, and Opus 4.6 leads on agentic coding, long-horizon reasoning and tool-use reliability.

Claude Opus 4.6 is a frontier AI model from Anthropic. It costs $5.000 per million input tokens and $25.000 per million output tokens (blended $11.000/M), with a 1M-token context window.
