A What it is for

Opus pricing but only 200K context and 64K output, so it is strictly worse value than Opus 5 - keep only for pinned reproducibility. Earliest retirement November 24 2026, the nearest of any active Opus.

At a three-to-one input-to-output ratio, Claude Opus 4.5 costs $10.00 per million tokens blended. A workload of one million input and 330,000 output tokens per day would run about $397.50 per month at list price, before caching or batch discounts.
