Claude Fable 5.1 Calculator — requests per $1

Every monthly plan that includes Claude Fable 5.1, converted to requests per $1 at the model's typical request shape. Same engine as the main calculator — proxy estimates carry a ~ marker; coarse estimates carry .

Claude Fable 5.1 is Anthropic's next-generation agentic-coding flagship, released 2026-09-01 — the #1-ranked model on the LMArena agent leaderboard (2026-09-10, Max config) and the same $10/$50 (input/output) API rate as Fable 5 with cache reads cut to $0.25/MTok.

Why prices differClaude Fable 5.1 is sold at a single maker list price across the plans we track — providers pass through the same $10/$50 API rate with only cache-write/read handling varying, so the cross-provider spread reflects plan mechanics and per-plan multipliers, not a raw rate difference.

Common questions

How many requests per $1 do I get on Claude Fable 5.1?
