Claude Opus 4.5 (2025-11-01) API pricing breakdown
Claude Opus 4.5 (2025-11-01) (claude-opus-4-5-20251101) is billed by token usage. Prices below are USD per 1M tokens. LLMFly AI rates already include the 0.5x group multiplier; do not apply it again. Provider reference prices are separate. These rates come from the site's Model Plaza snapshot; confirm live catalog and account rates before calling.
Example: a request with 10,000 uncached input tokens and 1,000 output tokens costs approximately $0.0375 in LLMFly AI token charges. This excludes cache writes, tools, retries, and other additional fees.
- Platform and provider prices use their own input-token tiers. Do not apply provider long-context multipliers to platform prices.
- Not listed does not mean free. Account for cache reads, cache writes, and uncached input in their respective billing categories.
- Token cost = tokens in each billing category × its price per million ÷ 1,000,000. Add tools and other charges separately.
| Price source | Input tokens per request | Input | Output | Cache write | Cache read | 1h cache write |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LLMFly AI | Single rate | $2.5 | $12.5 | $3.125 | $0.25 | $5 |
| Provider reference | Single rate | $5 | $25 | $6.25 | $0.5 | $10 |
Pricing tiers and additional charges

Comparing Claude Opus 4.5 (2025-11-01) with sibling models
Compare the exact API ID, vendor lifecycle, context, maximum output, tools, and thinking controls first. Then measure pass rate, latency, tokens, and total cost on the same tasks. The Claude Opus 4.5 (2025-11-01) version or tier label alone does not prove better results.
Use the exact model ID when connecting
Set the model field to claude-opus-4-5-20251101; do not infer its spelling from the display name. Configure the API address and key using the access documentation; the snippet only shows the model field, not a complete request.
- Send a minimal text request and inspect the response and usage.
- Test streaming, tool calls, and structured output separately if your application needs them.
- Check retry behavior and spending limits before increasing traffic.
