What is Claude Sonnet 5.5?

Claude Sonnet 5.5 is Anthropic’s faster, lower-cost Claude 5.5 model for well-scoped professional work, software development, agentic workflows, and content creation. Anthropic positions it below Claude Opus 5.5 for the most complex open-ended work, but says it can perform comparably on some benchmarks when run at higher effort settings. The model delivers a particularly large improvement in coding, including a 70.6% result on Terminal-Bench 4.0, 46.2% on FrontierCode at Max effort, and 55.5% on CursorBench 4.0. It also scores 1844 on GDPval-AA, 1811 on AA-Briefcase, 64.5% on Humanity’s Last Exam with tools, and 80.1% on OSWorld 2.1 partial. Anthropic reports that Sonnet 5.5 is better at long-horizon work, image understanding, collaboration, and codebase comprehension than Sonnet 5. The company also highlights design-oriented improvements, including the ability to produce polished documents, spreadsheets, slides, and user interfaces with less editing. Sonnet 5.5 generates output more than 30% faster than its predecessor and is Anthropic’s fastest Sonnet model to date. Although its listed token prices are unchanged from Sonnet 5, Anthropic says greater token efficiency can reduce per-task cost by up to 30%. Pricing is $2 per million input tokens, $10 per million output tokens, $2.50 per million cache-write tokens, and $0.20 per million cache-read tokens. The model includes cyber safeguards, biology safeguards, reasoning-extraction protections, and preserved-thinking controls, with some higher-risk cyber requests falling back to Sonnet 5. Claude Sonnet 5.5 is available with zero data retention across Claude products, the Claude Platform, AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure under the model name claude-sonnet-5-5.

What is Claude Sonnet 4.6?

Claude Sonnet 4.6 is the latest evolution in Anthropic’s Sonnet model family, offering major advancements in coding, reasoning, computer interaction, and knowledge-intensive workflows. Designed as a full upgrade rather than an incremental update, it improves consistency, instruction following, and multi-step task completion across a broad range of professional applications. The model introduces a 1 million token context window in beta, enabling users to analyze entire codebases, long contracts, research archives, or complex planning documents in one cohesive session. Developers with early access reported a strong preference for Sonnet 4.6 over Sonnet 4.5 and even favored it over Opus 4.5 in many real-world coding tasks. Users highlighted its reduced overengineering tendencies, improved follow-through, and lower incidence of hallucinations during extended sessions. A major enhancement is its improved computer-use capability, allowing it to operate traditional software environments by interacting with graphical interfaces much like a human user. On benchmarks such as OSWorld, Sonnet models have shown steady gains in handling browser navigation, spreadsheets, and development tools. The model also demonstrates strategic reasoning improvements in long-horizon simulations, such as Vending-Bench Arena, where it optimizes early investments before pivoting toward profitability. On the Claude Developer Platform, Sonnet 4.6 supports adaptive thinking, extended thinking, and context compaction to maximize usable context length. API enhancements now include automated search filtering, code execution, memory, and advanced tool use capabilities for higher-quality outputs. Pricing remains consistent with Sonnet 4.5, making Opus-level performance more accessible to a broader user base. Available across Claude.ai, Cowork, Claude Code, the API, and major cloud platforms, Sonnet 4.6 becomes the new default model for Free and Pro users.
