Anthropic hikes the price of its Haiku model

Anthropic’s newest AI model has arrived. But it’s pricier than the last generation — and, unlike Anthropic’s other models, can’t analyze images just yet.

Claude 3.5 Haiku, which Anthropic announced last month, matches or bests the performance of Claude 3 Opus, once Anthropic’s state-of-the-art model, on certain benchmarks. Available through Anthropic’s API and a number of third-party platforms, like AWS Bedrock, Claude 3.5 Haiku is useful for coding suggestions, chatbots, data extraction and labeling, and content moderation, Anthropic says.

Anthropic previously suggested that Claude 3.5 Haiku would cost the same as Claude 3 Haiku, its predecessor. But now it’s changing its tune.

“During final testing, Haiku surpassed Claude 3 Opus, our previous flagship model, on many benchmarks — at a fraction of the cost. As a result, we’ve increased pricing for Claude 3.5 Haiku to reflect its increase in intelligence,” Anthropic wrote in a series of tweets.

Pricing for Claude 3.5 Haiku starts at $1 per million input tokens (~750,000 words) and $5 per million output tokens. That’s compared to 25 cents per million input tokens and $1.25 per million output tokens for Claude 3 Haiku — a steep price hike.

Claude 3.5 Haiku also isn’t launching with image analysis capabilities. Alex Albert, head of developer relations at Anthropic, said that Claude 3 Haiku will remain available “for users requiring maximum cost-efficiency and image processing.”
