Key Strengths & Architectural Trade-offs

Direct synthesis of practical production advantages and limitations.

Claude 3.5 Haiku

Key Strengths
  • Very low latency and high tokens/second throughput
  • Matches Claude 3 Opus on coding benchmarks at 1/15th the price
  • 200k context window supported
Limitations
  • Text-only; image input is not supported on Haiku 3.5
  • Less nuanced on multi-turn complex mathematical derivations

Claude 3.7 Sonnet

Key Strengths
