Anthropic has released Claude Sonnet 4.5, calling it their strongest coding model yet. It targets developers, researchers, and enterprises needing long-horizon reasoning, code execution, and complex agent building. Available worldwide today through the Claude API at the same $3/$15 per million tokens pricing as Sonnet 4, the model leads benchmarks like SWE-bench Verified and OSWorld, sustaining focus for 30+ hours on multi-step coding tasks.

Anthropic also unveiled the Claude Agent SDK, offering the same infrastructure used internally.

Early adopters from GitHub Copilot, Canva, Figma, Devin, and security teams report large productivity and accuracy gains, from debugging to financial analysis and red teaming. The model also incorporates expanded safety training and defenses against prompt injection, making it the most aligned Claude release to date.
