Anthropic Slashes Claude Pricing With Fable 5 and Mythos 5
Anthropic drops Claude model pricing to $10/1M input tokens and $50/1M output — less than half the Mythos Preview cost.
Anthropic just made its top-tier AI models significantly cheaper. Both Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 land at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens. That's less than half what Claude Mythos Preview costs.
The pricing puts Anthropic's most capable models in aggressive competition territory. Two flagship-tier models at identical price points is a bold move.
Fable 5 is aimed at general users, packing Mythos-class intelligence with additional safety controls baked in. Think of it as the guardrailed version of Anthropic's most powerful tech.
Mythos 5 sits alongside it at the same price, presumably targeting developers and enterprise users who want raw capability. The dual-model strategy at a unified price point simplifies the buying decision considerably.
The takeaway: Anthropic is betting that cheaper access to elite models wins the race.
