   I don't see how anyone can be using Claude with prices like this, it's pretty incredible what the OpenAI team is doing, w.r.t model quality and pricing.

     Prices per 1M tokens     Claude Opus 5.5    Claude Opus 5
      Cache reads              $0.20              $0.50
      Input tokens             $4                 $5
      Output tokens            $20                $25
      Cache writes             $5                 $6.25

      These are the pre rug pull prices. They'll increase prices 10x and nerf the models after they IPO.

         That would only work if OpenAI were a monopoly, which they are not.
