Claude Sonnet 5

Balanced

The most agentic Sonnet Anthropic has shipped: it plans, drives tools like browsers and terminals, and runs autonomously at a level that previously needed a larger model, with performance close to Opus 4.8 at a fraction of the price. Launch pricing is $2/$10 per MTok through 31 August 2026, after which it moves to $3/$15.

Claude Sonnet 5 is a multimodal AI model from Anthropic. It costs $2.000 per million input tokens and $10.000 per million output tokens (blended $4.400/M), with a 1,000,000-token context window.
