Haiku 5.5 cuts model costs 75% while lifting small-model performance
Anthropic’s Haiku 5.5 gives teams a faster, cheaper option for high-volume work, costing around 75% less to run than Haiku 4.5. It handles tasks such as summaries, database queries, customer support, and browser use, with adjustable effort so users can trade cost for intelligence. For prompts up to 100,000 tokens, input costs $0.10 per million and output costs $0.50, a pricing tier that covers about 90% of requests to the previous Haiku model.
