Why this status
Modalities read from Anthropic's model documentation as it stood on 2025-05-26, which lists this model as: “Claude Opus 4 Our most powerful and capable model Text and image input Text output 200k context window Superior reasoning capabilities.” The current documentation no longer lists it, so the contemporaneous snapshot is cited rather than the live page. Capabilities evidenced from the primary sources: coding: “Introducing Claude 4 \ Anthropic Skip to main content Skip to footer Claude API Solutions Research Commitments Learn News Try Claude Announcements Introducing Claude 4 Ma” | agentic: “Claude Opus 4 is the world’s best coding model, with sustained performance on complex, long-running tasks and agent workflows.” | vision: “Claude Opus 4 Our most powerful and capable model Text and image input Text output 200k context window Superior reasoning capabilities Claude Sonnet 4 High-performance mo”.

Pricing
The price a lab's own page showed on the day that page was captured. That is what a snapshot can prove; it is not necessarily the launch price, and prices are often cut later. Citing the live pricing page instead would give a number with no date at all.
| Input | $15 per million tokens observed November 19, 2025 · archived snapshot (2025-11-19) |

Benchmarks
Each row is a dated claim by a named party, not a property of the model. A later revision adds a row rather than replacing one. This project publishes no composite or overall score.
| Benchmark | Score | Reported by | Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| SWE-bench | 72.5 | Vendor reported | May 22, 2025 |
| Terminal-Bench | 43.2 | Vendor reported | May 22, 2025 |

What changed from Claude 3 Opus
Compared with the previous release in this series. A field appears only when both records state a value — where one does not, it is listed as uncomparable rather than dropped, because a gap in our research is not a finding about the model.
