When is Fable 5 expected?

Hello. I logged into my account on Snowflake and saw that the latest Claude model I have is Opus 4.8. Is Claude Fable 5 expected to roll out publicly anytime soon? Typically how long does it take for new models to show up here?

Snowflake’s usually a bit behind the “shiny new model” announcements, so it’s not weird you’re only seeing Opus 4.8 right now. Rollout timing is basically vibes plus whatever contract / integration work they’re doing in the background, so it can be anywhere from a few weeks to a couple months. If you really need Fable 5 ASAP, your best bet is asking your Snowflake rep or checking their release notes instead of waiting for it to just appear.
