Anthropic launches Claude Haiku 5.5 at a tenth of previous price

Anthropic has released its Claude Haiku 5.5 model, significantly reducing the cost of its smallest offering. The new model is priced at $0.10 per million input tokens, which is ten times cheaper than its predecessor, Haiku 4.5. Additionally, a tiered pricing structure applies for prompts exceeding 100,000 tokens, costing five times the base rate. AI

IMPACT Significantly lowers the cost barrier for accessing Anthropic's AI models, potentially increasing adoption for high-volume applications.
