AI company Anthropic has announced the release of its latest models, Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1. The company states these new models address customer feedback regarding pricing, data retention policies, and overly restrictive safety features.
Claude Fable 5.1 is claimed to outperform its predecessor, Fable 5, while offering reduced costs. Anthropic reports that typical usage is approximately 25 percent cheaper, with complex agentic tasks seeing cost reductions of up to 45 percent. These savings are attributed to adjusted pricing for already processed and cached data.
The updated models are designed to balance performance improvements with greater cost-efficiency. Agentic work, which often involves intricate processes and repeated data handling, is highlighted as a key area benefiting from the new pricing structure.
Early user impressions suggest the new models are performing well. Feedback indicates Fable 5.1 is a strong coding model that is also fast, token-efficient, and communicates in a more natural manner.
