Verdict

A good performance / EU-hosting balance for a European company.

Overview

Claude Opus 4.6 is Anthropic's latest proprietary model, built for complex reasoning and code generation, with a one-million-token context window. No model card or benchmark figures shipped alongside the launch, so its actual capabilities can't yet be checked against reproducible numbers. It remains fully closed: no open weights, no on-premise deployment, and all data runs through Anthropic's US infrastructure. API pricing lands at $5/$25 per million input/output tokens.

Quality of this card’s data

80/100

This score measures the quality of the data on this card: price, context, Elo, licence, documented, sourced and fresh. It measures neither the model nor its compliance: for that, see the Trust Index above.
