Start building free
claude-haiku-4.5 is a lightweight model from Anthropic’s Claude 4.5 family, designed as the fast, low-cost tier alongside larger models like Claude Sonnet and Opus. As the “Haiku” name suggests, it prioritizes very low latency and efficiency while still retaining solid general-purpose capabilities in tasks such as drafting, summarization, coding assistance, and tool use. It’s typically used in production scenarios where response speed, throughput, and cost are more critical than maximal reasoning depth or creativity, such as customer support, simple agents, or high-volume automation.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
model | string, required | This model's ID, exactly as shown above. |
messages | array, required | Conversation history as role/content objects (system, user, assistant). |
temperature | number, optional | Sampling randomness, typically 0–2. |
max_tokens | integer, optional | Upper limit on tokens generated in the reply. |
top_p | number, optional | Nucleus-sampling threshold, as an alternative to temperature. |
stream | boolean, ignored | Responses are always returned in full so the exact cost can be billed; streaming is not available. |
