Anthropic cuts Claude Haiku 5.5 pricing to match GPT-6 Luna, but costs rise for long prompts

Anthropic has updated the pricing for its Claude Haiku 5.5 model, setting the cost at $0.10 per million input tokens for shorter prompts. This new pricing matches OpenAI's GPT-6 Luna for similar prompt lengths but represents a significant 90% reduction compared to the previous Haiku 4.5 pricing. However, costs increase fivefold for prompts exceeding 100,000 tokens, a detail that could surprise users migrating to the new model for high-volume tasks. AI

IMPACT New pricing for Claude Haiku 5.5 may influence adoption for high-volume tasks and offers a competitive alternative to OpenAI's GPT-6 Luna.
