Tier

Score
94.9

Strengths

  • Offers strong reasoning capabilities for complex debugging and multi-step coding challenges.
  • Runs in the terminal, VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, a desktop app and the web.
  • Excels in code explanation and generating structured applications.

Considerations

  • Not included in the free Claude plan; larger workloads need Max (5x–20x Pro usage) or API billing.
  • Its deliberate, reasoning-heavy approach can be slower for simple tasks.

Price

Included in Claude Pro ($20/mo), Max ($100 or $200/mo), Team and Enterprise; or pay-as-you-go via API
