Claude Opus is the highest-capability tier in Anthropic's Claude family, positioned for the toughest reasoning workloads. It is more expensive and slower than Claude Sonnet, but its advantage shows up on deep math, large-codebase analysis, and long-form argumentation. Combined with Extended Thinking it competes directly in the Reasoning Models category. Alongside GPT-5 and Gemini Pro it is the third pillar of the closed-source frontier triad teams routinely benchmark against.
