Techmeme ·
Anthropic is pitching Claude Opus 5 as a safer, cheaper near-frontier model for everyday paid Claude use.

Techmeme’s note says Anthropic calls Opus 5 its “most aligned model to date” and says it is less susceptible to being tricked into misuse. The model is available today, priced the same as Opus 4.8, and is the default on Claude Max. Anthropic says it comes close to Claude Fable 5 performance at half the price. It is the company’s fourth model release in less than two months. Techmeme's note
