Anthropic releases Claude Haiku 5.5 for fast, high-volume work
Anthropic released Haiku 5.5 across the Claude API and supported cloud platforms for classification, summaries, customer support and other high-volume tasks. It offers adjustable effort and a 1M-token context window. API input and output start at $0.10 and $0.50 per million tokens for prompts up to 100,000 tokens, with higher rates above that threshold. Speed and benchmark comparisons are Anthropic’s own tests.
