Anthropic's New Sonnet 5 Model Is Better At The Tasks That Are Running Up Enterprise Bills
This version of Claude should offer more efficient performance at lower costs.
Anthropic has released a new version of Claude that's aimed at handling queries not just from human users, but from agentic AI. The company says its new Sonnet 5 model is capable of handling agentic tasks and delivering performance specs similar to its recent Opus models, but at lower prices.
Starting September 1, Sonnet 5 will cost $3 per million input tokens as a base and $15 per million output tokens. Before that date, the prices will be even lower. In contrast, Opus 4.8 currently costs $4 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. It will be available at those prices in Claude Code and the Claude Platform. Sonnet 5 will also be available for all subscriptions, including as the default model for Anthropic's free and pro tiers of Claude plans.
