Claude Haiku 5.5

Anthropic's fast tier for classification, extraction and routing, now with a 1M-token window. The only current Claude model priced by prompt length: ten cents in and fifty cents out per million tokens up to 100,000 prompt tokens, five times that above.

Model ID: claude-haiku-5-5

What that means

A worked example

Per-token pricing is hard to feel. Take a moderately chatty production workload: 100 calls a day, roughly 10,000 tokens in and 2,000 out each time. On Claude Haiku 5.5 that comes to about:

$6 / month

Before caching, batching or volume discounts, all of which move this number a long way. Illustrative only.

Strong at

  • -Very low cost under 100K tokens
  • -Speed
  • -1M context

Typical use

  • -Classification
  • -Extraction
  • -Subagent workers

Watch out for

  • -Sampling parameters, budget_tokens thinking and assistant prefill return a 400 error
  • -Long prompts cost five times the short-prompt rate

Same tier
