List prices, USD, directional. Rates are provider list prices per 1M tokens and are meant for comparison, not billing. Batch rates shown as 50% off are derived where a provider offers batch but does not publish a separate figure. Preview, promo, intro, peak/off-peak, long-context, and third-party-host prices are labeled where they apply. Token counts vary by tokenizer, so per-token price is not always a like-for-like cost. Always confirm with the provider before relying on a number. Prices as of 2026-11-02.

Pricing notes
- Tokenizer: Newer tokenizer produces roughly 30% more tokens per unit of text — per-token price is not directly comparable across tokenizer generations. See tokenizer.
- Superseded by Claude Fable 5.1 (2026-09-01) at the same list price; 5.1 cache reads are $0.25 against this model’s $1.00.
