Claude Sonnet 4.5 Thinking FAQ
What makes Claude Sonnet 4.5 thinking code unique?
Unlike the standard 3.5 variant, Claude Sonnet 4.5 Thinking adds an internal scratchpad for logical verification. This significantly improves accuracy in software engineering and complex mathematics while maintaining the 200k context window and speed expectations of the Sonnet tier.
How are thinking tokens billed for this model?
Internal reasoning tokens consumed by the Claude model are billed at the standard output rate of $15 per 1M tokens. You define the specific budget via the thinking configuration object in your request to control costs while ensuring deep logical analysis.
Does Claude Sonnet 4.5 support multimodal vision?
Yes, Claude supports images, high-density PDFs, and sampled video frames. It is particularly effective at extracting structured data from technical blueprints, financial charts, and handwritten notes by applying its internal reasoning to visual inputs.
What is the context window for 4.5 thinking?
The model features a massive 200,000-token context window, allowing for full repository ingestion or long-document analysis. It supports up to 8,192 visible output tokens, though the internal thinking budget is managed as a separate parameter within the request.
Can Claude Sonnet 4.5 search the live web?
Claude supports advanced web search tools with dynamic filtering. The model can write and execute code to post-process search results, ensuring it only ingests the most relevant data to its context window, which reduces token noise and improves accuracy.
How do I implement thinking in my API call?
To use this feature, you must include a thinking object in your JSON payload and set a budget_tokens value between 1024 and 8192. Our platform provides a 100% OpenAI-compatible header format, making it easy to migrate your existing Claude integration.
