What Claude Opus 4.5 Turbo is good for
Claude Opus 4.5 Turbo sits in the frontier tier of the index. It is aimed at work where answer quality matters more than unit cost: hard reasoning, multi-step coding, document analysis and multimodal inputs. At $19.57 per million input tokens and a 2,000,000-token context window, it is a premium option, so reserve it for tasks where a cheaper model measurably fails.
