Checked September 22, 2026 against platform.claude.com/docs/en/about-claude/pricing and claude.com/pricing.

The live Anthropic platform table lists Claude Sonnet 5 at $2 input / $10 output per million tokens. Five-minute cache writes are $2.50. Cache reads are $0.20. Batch is $1 / $5.

That is not Sonnet 4.6. Sonnet 4.6 (and Sonnet 4.5) stay at $3 / $15. Do not average the two rows.

On September 17 this desk published that Sonnet 5 intro $2 / $10 had ended August 31 and that standard list was $3 / $15. The official table on September 22 does not match that desk. Official page wins. Old → new on the live pages: Sonnet 5 $3 / $15 → $2 / $10.

Seats did not move: Pro $20 monthly / $17 annual, Max 5x $100, Max 20x $200, Team Standard $20 annual / $25 monthly, Team Premium $100 annual / $125 monthly, Enterprise $20/seat plus API usage.

Fable 5.1 remains $10 / $50 with cache reads at $0.25 (already logged September 19). Cursor individual seats remain Hobby free / Pro $20 / Pro+ $60 / Ultra $200.

Updated in place: the four canonical pricing desks plus the Claude Code vs Cursor page.
