frequently asked

What is Claude Haiku 4.5 best for?+
Claude Haiku 4.5 is Anthropic’s fastest and most efficient model, delivering near-frontier intelligence at a fraction of the cost and latency of larger Claude models. Matching Claude Sonnet 4’s performance across reasoning, coding, and computer-use tasks, Haiku 4.5 brings frontier-level capability to real-time and high-volume applications. It introduces extended thinking to the Haiku line; enabling controllable reasoning depth, summarized or interleaved thought output, and tool-assisted workflows with full support for coding, bash, web search, and computer-use tools. Scoring >73% on SWE-bench Verified, Haiku 4.5 ranks among the world’s best coding models while maintaining exceptional responsiveness for sub-agents, parallelized execution, and scaled deployment.
How much does Claude Haiku 4.5 cost?+
$1/M input and $5/M output, cache reads $0.10/M. In an agent loop most input is cache-read, so the effective input rate is about $0.37/M.
Which plan do I need?+
Available on Pro and above.
How do I switch to it?+
Run cmd --model claude-haiku-4-5, or type /model in a session and pick it. You can switch mid-session without losing context.
