Highlighted rows are where these differ.
Claude Fable 5.1
- Matches or beats Fable 5 at low and medium effort, and pulls clear at high effort
- Cache reads cut to 25% of the old price, so re-reading a long context got much cheaper
- Identical model to Mythos 5.1 underneath; the difference is the safeguards
Best for coding and long-running work.
GPT-6.1 Sol
- Matches GPT-6 Astra on DeepSWE v1.1 at roughly a fifth of the cost
- $5.47 per Terminal-Bench Science task against $23.80 for Astra
- Above 272K tokens a prompt bills at 2x input and 1.5x output for the whole request
Best for coding and agent work at volume.
