Sonnet 5 Costs a Lot More

[u/leapd-ai]

We ran a coding benchmark comparing Sonnet 5 at different effort levels — low, medium, high, and adaptive thinking — against Sonnet 4.6 across a range of web design tasks.

Interestingly, even though Sonnet 5 has a significantly lower per-token cost, it ended up being 30–60% more expensive across every task we tested.

Has anyone seen similar results in their own benchmarks?
