Anthropic has released its latest AI model with Claude Opus 5. The new version arrives about two months after the previous Opus model upgrade, matching Anthropic’s previous upgrade cadence.

Anthropic says Opus 5 offers near Fable 5 intelligence for half the cost

Anthropic currently offers a lot of AI models under the Claude umbrella.

The three main models are Haiku (smallest and cheapest), Sonnet (medium size and price), and Opus (largest and most expensive of the three).

Today’s release upgrades Claude’s Opus model from version 4.8 to version 5.
