claude-opus-4-6-think API price comparison

Claude Opus 4.6 does not enable reasoning mode by default. To access its deep reasoning capabilities, users would typically need to call the native Claude API. To make this capability available through an OpenAI-compatible interface, we provide the claude-opus-4-6-think model, which has reasoning mode pre-enabled and a default 32k-token context window, allowing it to be called directly via the OpenAI unified API. Claude Opus 4.5 Think is a reasoning-focused variant of Claude Opus 4.6 designed for advanced tasks that require rigorous reasoning, complex decision-making, and long-chain analysis. Aside from its enhanced reasoning mechanism, all other capabilities remain consistent with the standard Claude Opus 4.6 model, making it well suited for complex engineering problem decomposition, multi-stage planning, and logic-intensive analysis.
