Balanced Claude model for coding, analysis, agent workflows, and cost control
Claude 3.5 Sonnet by anthropic is offered by 2 providers on this page. Public prices are shown for 1 of them. Its reference price is $3.00 per 1M input tokens and $15.00 per 1M output tokens.
Artificial Analysis rates it 7.9 on the Intelligence Index, with 30.2 for coding. Against its lowest blended price of $6.00 per 1M, that is roughly 1 index points per dollar, which is the value ratio the leaderboards rank on.
The context window is 200,000 tokens, with an output limit of 8,192 tokens. It supports reasoning and tool use. Accepted input modalities are Text and Image. Providers report the capability flags inconsistently, so verify a specific feature against the host you plan to use. Its training knowledge cuts off at 2024-04.
Quality is independently evaluated by Artificial Analysis. Speed/latency are model-level medians.

Sorted by blended price (input×0.75 + output×0.25) asc. The official channel always shows regardless of rank. Whether a gateway's low price is actually usable can't be verified.
1 / 2 providers expose no reasoning control (reasoning_options: []).
Price history accumulates from each data sync; currently only 1 sample(s) (2026-08-13). Each future sync adds a point, and once accumulated a line is drawn here.
Individual evaluations run by Artificial Analysis, on the same reasoning tier as the intelligence score above. Each benchmark has its own task set and harness, so rows are not comparable with one another. The Intelligence Index above draws on a different, newer set of evaluations.
