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 Astra
- 97.6% on FrontierMath Tier 4, 99.9% on ARC-AGI-3 and 100% on ExploitBench
