Claude Opus 4 example: reading an image into JSON
The example is picked from this model's own capabilities. Drop in your key and it runs as is.
# tip: a data URI works too — base64 the file and prefix it with data:image/jpeg;base64,

Anthropic publishes this model; we expose it under the id "anthropic/claude-opus-4". Its context window is 200,000 tokens, roughly 150k English words in one request. A single response can run to 32,000 tokens. On price it sits in the "expensive" band — cheaper than 395 and dearer than 11 of the other paid models in the catalogue.
What you get on top of text in, text out: it reads images directly, which makes it a real option for invoices, forms and screenshots; it takes files such as PDFs as input; it supports tool calling, so it can invoke your own functions with valid arguments; it has a reasoning mode that pays off on multi-step problems, maths and debugging. All of it works through the standard parameters of the official OpenAI SDK — no custom client, no wrapper. Keep in mind that reasoning tokens are output tokens and do appear on the bill.
Input runs at 4,351,875 toman per 1M tokens and output at 21,759,375 — output costs 5× input, so trimming the answer saves more than trimming the prompt. It supports cached input: repeated context is billed at 435,188 toman per 1M, which matters a lot if your system prompt is long. You are always charged for the usage the request actually reported, never for the estimate, and a failed request costs nothing.
The closest alternative with the same capabilities from a different provider is o3 Pro: Claude Opus 4 works out roughly 1.1× cheaper, and its context window is the same size. Both run on the same key and the same code, so trying the other one is a single string change.
To make the figure concrete: 100,000 toman of credit buys roughly 3 thousand-word requests on Claude Opus 4, and every 1,000 toman is about 29 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 26,111,250 toman in total. Filling this model's 200,000-token window costs 870,375 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.
Its nearest relative in the catalogue is "anthropic/claude-opus-4.1", and choosing between those two is where most people hesitate. Both land at nearly the same price on a thousand-word request (33,945 and 33,945 toman). On parameters the other takes top_k.
Anthropic has 31 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Claude 3 Haiku at 566 toman per thousand words and the dearest Claude Opus 4.1 at 33,945. It does not support response_format, seed, structured_outputs, which most models here do, so test before switching if your code relies on them. By context size the nearest option from another provider is o1 at 200,000 tokens.
Where it makes sense: work where the quality of the answer matters more than its cost, logic puzzles and code review, pulling text and fields out of images, agents that reach out to APIs and databases, analysing a long document or codebase in one request.
