Anthropic releases Opus 5 with ‘close’ to Fable 5’s capabilities
This includes Opus 5.”Anthropic is marketing Opus 5 especially to its enterprise customers, saying it’s best for knowledge work and biology and that it’s the ideal everyday model, with Fable 5 still being best for the most ambitious types of work and long-horizon AI agent projects. Per million tokens, pricing for Opus 5 is the same as its predecessor ($5 input / $25 output), and Anthropic made the point that it’s “half the price” of Fable 5. It’s also slightly cheaper than OpenAI’s GPT-5.6.Customers can also choose “Fast mode” for Opus 5 (a feature that’s being launched today in research preview), to get higher speeds for double the price.
