It succeeds [[sibling:claude-sonnet-4-6|Claude Sonnet 4.6]] and, further back, [[sibling:claude-sonnet-4-5|Claude Sonnet 4.5]], while sitting below the flagship [[sibling:claude-opus-4-8|Claude Opus 4.8]].
Against its direct predecessor, Anthropic describes Sonnet 5 as a substantial improvement in reasoning, tool use, coding, and knowledge work. The platform docs note it is a drop-in upgrade for Sonnet 4.6, with adaptive thinking now enabled by default and manual extended thinking and custom sampling parameters removed. It keeps the 1M-token context window, though each token now covers slightly less text on average.
The stated design goal is to bring near-Opus quality to a lower-priced Sonnet: Anthropic says Sonnet 5 approaches Opus 4.8 on many tasks while covering a wider cost-performance range.
Sonnet 5 is available across Claude plans, in Claude Code, and via the Claude Platform, Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Foundry.

"Best price" and the seller table are live AntSeed catalog data (advertised $/1M tokens — or $ per generated image for unit-billed image models — not settled amounts). Reputation = on-chain trust (0-100). "Routing" = the SDK's default buyer routing (what the VPR desktop app ships with): a trust ≥ 60 gate on the effective reputation, then cheapest-first among routable sellers; live failover state (per-peer cooldowns) is buyer-side runtime and not included. Model knowledge (TLDR, provider, About) via the VeniceStats enrichment layer. Advertised catalog, not the model used in any specific purchase. "Usage on AntSeed" counts only settlements whose buyers share the per-model split on-chain (metadata v2/v3, opt-in), so every usage figure is a lower bound.
