Fable 5 is the product face of Anthropic's Mythos program: the first Mythos-class model anyone can buy. It went on sale June 9, 2026, and this page tracks the commercial side: what it costs, what the price includes, and where it runs. For the full technical picture, start with the Fable 5 explainer .

Pricing

  • $10 per million input tokens, $50 per million output tokens on the Claude API. Exactly double Opus 4.8.
  • Included in Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise plans at no extra cost through June 22, 2026.
  • A request the safety layer refuses before any output costs nothing, and fallback credit covers the prompt-cache cost when a request reroutes to another model.

The fine print, including the decision tree for when the premium pays off, lives in our pricing and access guide .

What the price includes

  • 1M-token context window by default, with up to 128k output tokens per request.
  • Adaptive thinking, always on, steered through the effort parameter.
  • The launch feature set: memory tool, compaction, context editing, task budgets (beta), and vision.
