A post says Claude Opus 5 shipped with a price that did not move: $5 in / $25 out, the same as Opus 4.8.
The author claims it is now within 0.5% of Fable 5 on coding while costing about half as much, and beats Fable 5 on computer use at roughly one-third the cost.
They also add that for Max subscribers, it is already the default model.
