Claude 3 Haiku compression
Claude 3 Haiku offers the best cost-performance ratio among Anthropic models. At $0.25/1M input tokens, compression still saves ~65%, bringing effective costs to $0.09/1M.
Haiku with compression economics
At $0.25/1M input tokens, Haiku is already 10x cheaper than GPT-4o. With 65% compression, effective cost drops to $0.09/1M — only $0.00009 per 1,000-token prompt. For a high-volume application doing 100,000 queries/day, that is $9/day instead of $25/day without compression.
Frequently asked questions
Is compression worth it for such a cheap model?
At high volume, yes. 100K queries/day × 65% savings × $0.25/1M = $16/day savings, or ~$5,840/year.
Does Haiku handle compressed prompts well?
Yes. Haiku is surprisingly capable with compressed context, especially for straightforward tasks.
