Anthropic releases Claude Sonnet 5.5, a model aimed at coding and office-oriented tasks. The company says it delivers responses more than 30% faster than its predecessor and can use fewer tokens to complete many tasks.
Anthropic presents the change as a cost improvement without altering its listed API price, describing lower cost per task as a result of reduced token usage. The model is positioned as usable across Anthropic’s Claude Platform and via major cloud services, including Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
Coverage across outlets centers on the same core points: a new model launch, performance gains measured as speed, and a reduced per-task cost achieved through efficiency rather than a change in publicly listed pricing. The reporting also highlights deployment availability across multiple platforms.
