Anthropic releases Claude Opus 5 with near Fable 5 performance at half the price

Anthropic has released Claude Opus 5, a model it says comes close to its top-tier Fable 5 while costing about half as much for comparable workloads. Its pricing remains $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens, unchanged from Opus 4.8 and well below Fable 5’s $10 and $50 rates. The launch shifts the practical choice for organizations from maximum model capability toward the cost of running AI continuously.
