Anthropic Launches Third Claude 5.5 Model, Expanding AI Lineup Before Planned IPO

Anthropic says the model cuts per-token prices by up to 90% and adds effort controls for high-volume tasks.

  • On Wednesday, Anthropic launched Claude Haiku 5.5, described as its "fastest and most efficient model," marking the third Claude 5.5 upgrade in the past month.
  • Anthropic reports the model "costs around 75% less to run" than Haiku 4.5, with pricing starting at $0.10 and $0.50 per million tokens for requests under 100,000 tokens.
  • Featuring new effort controls, Haiku 5.5 scored 72.4% on OSWorld 2.1 benchmarks and includes updated cybersecurity safeguards for high-risk requests.
  • Alongside this launch, Anthropic introduced monthly API credits for Team and Max subscribers and cut Sonnet 5.5's cache-read price by half to $0.10 per million tokens.
  • Expanding its artificial intelligence lineup ahead of a planned IPO, the model is available on Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure, complementing Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5.
