From Anthropic's launch post; chart figures are read from its benchmark image. The post states no context window or maximum output, and the price shown is the revised one, not necessarily the launch price. · source
Estimate from the version's published specs, benchmarks and reviews, 0-5; scores are only comparable within one criteria year. Scored as launched (Claude 3.5 Haiku, 4 Nov 2024): list price at launch $1 in / $5 out per 1M tokens = $2 blended at 3:1 (TechCrunch, Willison, The Decoder; Anthropic cut it to $0.80/$4 on 5 Dec 2024, per the update on its own post and Willison, so that cut is not used); 200K-token context (OpenRouter model page for the 2024-10-22 snapshot, released 4 Nov 2024; the launch pages opened do not restate it); text-only input at launch (TechCrunch and Willison: no image input until 25 Feb 2025). Anthropic: SWE-bench Verified 40.6%. Reasoning null (no launch-version AA index opened), coding null (no Terminal-Bench 4.0), speed null (Anthropic said only 'similar speed to the previous generation of Haiku'). Review gap: I found only launch-week press analysis (Willison, TechCrunch, The Decoder); a Medium hands-on (Starks) was blocked by Cloudflare and not used, so no true hands-on test.[6]
Claude 3.5 Haiku is different. First, it doesn't (yet) support image inputs—so Claude 3 Haiku remains the least expensive Anthropic model for handling those.
Claude 3.5 Haiku also isn't launching with image analysis features, making it less capable in at least one respect compared to Claude 3 Haiku.
The new Claude 3.5 Haiku demonstrates impressive capabilities relative to its speed and cost in programming tasks.

Photos from readers, kept apart from the pin's sourced media. Rate what you ate or saw, and on a restaurant pin tag the dishes right on your photo.
The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
Claude's[2][3] release notes: "November 4th, 2024 Claude Haiku 3.5 is now available on the Claude API as a text-only model"; TechCrunch[4] (10:24 AM PST, 4 November 2024) reports "Anthropic's[6] newest AI model has arrived" and AWS posted Bedrock availability the same day. The 22 October post had said it "will be released later this month".
Anthropic's[1][6] own dated changelog: "November 4th, 2024 Claude[3] Haiku 3.5 is now available on the Claude API as a text-only model", and on 24 February 2025 "We've added vision support to Claude Haiku 3.5". The model card addendum that is the source carries no release date, so this entry dates the pin.
Anthropic[1][6] notified developers on 19 December 2025 that Claude[2] Haiku 3.5 (claude-3-5-haiku-20241022) would be retired; it was retired on 19 February 2026, with claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 as the replacement.
TechCrunch (Kyle Wiggers, 10:24 AM PST, 4 November 2024): "Anthropic's[1][6] newest AI model has arrived"; it costs $1 per million input and $5 per million output tokens against Claude[2][3] 3 Haiku's $0.25 and $1.25, "a 4x hike", quoting Anthropic that "we've increased pricing for Claude 3.5 Haiku to reflect its increase in intelligence", and it launches without image analysis.
AWS What's New, "Posted on: Nov 4, 2024": Claude[2][3] 3.5 Haiku is now available in Amazon Bedrock and "surpasses even Claude 3 Opus, the largest model in Anthropic's[1][6] previous generation, on many intelligence benchmarks—including coding".
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
