Anthropic publishes this model; we expose it under the id "anthropic/
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 returns schema-valid JSON through response_format, ready to hand to your code; 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 346,219 toman per 1M tokens and output at 1,731,097 — output costs 5× input, so trimming the answer saves more than trimming the prompt. It supports cached input: repeated context is billed at 17,311 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 Gemini 4 Argon (batch), and Claude Sonnet 5.5 (batch) costs about the same, and its context window is smaller. 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 37 thousand-word requests on Claude Sonnet 5.5 (batch), and every 1,000 toman is about 370 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 2,077,316 toman in total. Filling this model's 1,000,000-token window costs 346,219 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.

Anthropic has 24 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Claude Haiku 5.5 (batch) at 135 toman per thousand words and the dearest Claude Opus 4.1 at 40,508. Among the less common parameters it accepts reasoning_effort, verbosity — all through the standard request body. It does not support temperature, top_p, seed, 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 Nova 2 Lite at 1,000,000 tokens.
Where it makes sense: product chatbots and internal assistants, where cost and quality have to balance, logic puzzles and code review, pulling text and fields out of images, agents that reach out to APIs and databases, extracting data against a fixed schema, analysing a long document or codebase in one request.
Claude Sonnet 5.5 is Anthropic's Sonnet-class model for well-scoped everyday work, succeeding Claude Sonnet 5 as a direct upgrade. It is especially strong at building features, fixing bugs, and producing...
