Anthropic Launches Claude Opus 5 at Half the Price of Fable 5
Anthropic launched Claude Opus 5, saying the new model is available on all paid Claude plans and the Claude API and comes close to Fable 5 at half the price.
Anthropic said Opus 5 is the new state-of-the-art on several coding and knowledge work evaluations and that its ARC-AGI-3 score was three times higher than the next best model. The company said Opus 5 is priced the same as Opus 4.8, is the default model on Claude Max and the strongest option on Claude Pro, and is also rolling out across third-party tools including Cursor, Devin and GitHub Copilot.
