What each model is for
Claude Opus 4.7
Anthropic · Previous
Released April 2026 as a targeted improvement on Opus 4.6 in advanced software engineering, with the clearest gains on the hardest tasks. Available through the Claude API, Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI and Microsoft Foundry.
- Advanced software engineering, strongest on hard tasks
- 1M-token context
- Agentic coding
- Available across all four major clouds
GPT-5.6 Luna
OpenAI · Efficient
The fastest and most affordable GPT-5.6 tier, a deliberately low-reasoning lane for high-volume work where speed and cost are the binding constraints rather than depth. It keeps the family's 1M-token context window at $0.20/$1.20 per MTok, which is 25× cheaper than Sol on input, with cached input at $0.02.
- Lowest cost in the GPT-5.6 family, 25× cheaper input than Sol
- Fast responses
- High-volume throughput
- 1M-token context
Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper, Claude Opus 4.7 or GPT-5.6 Luna?
On blended cost GPT-5.6 Luna undercuts Claude Opus 4.7 by about 22.0×: $0.500 per million tokens versus $11.00. A single 100K-input, 10K-output job costs $0.032 on GPT-5.6 Luna against $0.750 on Claude Opus 4.7. Blended cost weights input at 70% and output at 30%; price your own token split for an exact answer, since the cheaper model on a blended basis is not always cheaper for your workload.
Which has the larger context window, Claude Opus 4.7 or GPT-5.6 Luna?
On context, GPT-5.6 Luna is the larger at 1,050,000 tokens versus 1,000,000. The context window caps everything in a single request: prompt, retrieved documents, conversation history and the model’s own output all share it.
Can I compare Claude Opus 4.7 and GPT-5.6 Luna on my own numbers?
Yes. Open both in the side-by-side comparison tool to see every field at once, or use the token calculator to price your actual prompt and monthly request volume against each model. Both are free and need no sign-up.
