Claude Opus 4.8 is Anthropic's flagship Opus-family model, released 2026-05, built for long-horizon agentic work and memory-driven tasks where coherence over extended sessions matters. It is particularly strong on multi-step reasoning, complex coding, and end-to-end project orchestration across large codebases and asynchronous agent pipelines. It also handles knowledge work like drafting documents, building presentations, and analyzing data with consistent quality over long outputs.
Capabilities
Channels
Same weights on every channel. Requests route to the cheapest healthy one; the channel used is printed on each billing line.
Cost Calculator
Pick a channel and a usage scenario, then drag to your workload — each scenario assumes a different prompt-cache hit rate.
Benchmarks
bar = score (0–100) · ▏ medianScores from vendor reports and public leaderboards. No private evals.
Showcase
Three fixed prompts, identical for every chat model. Outputs are archived verbatim — copy the prompt to reproduce.
Build a single-file HTML page using three.js from a CDN: a low-poly planet with a tilted ring of ~200 orbiting particles, a soft key light plus rim light, slow auto-rotation, and drag-to-orbit controls. No build tools — one file only.
Every model will run this exact prompt; the output lands here verbatim, with tokens and per-run cost.
Find the sum of all positive integers n such that n² + 85n + 2017 is a perfect square. Show your reasoning, then give only the final answer on the last line.
Every model will run this exact prompt; the output lands here verbatim, with tokens and per-run cost.
Extract strict JSON {vendor, invoice_no, issue_date, currency, total, line_items:[{desc, qty, unit_price}]} from the invoice text. Output JSON only.
"Northwind Cloud Ltd. — Invoice NW-20847, issued 12 Mar 2026. 3× GPU-hour bundle at $18.40, 1× object storage 2TB at $9.90. Total $65.10 (USD)."Every model will run this exact prompt; the output lands here verbatim, with tokens and per-run cost.
