[Back to changelog](https://github.blog/changelog/)
|
||
|
||
Claude Sonnet 5 is Anthropic’s latest Sonnet-class model, now available in GitHub Copilot. It brings strong coding performance to everyday development and agentic workflows, giving developers a new Sonnet-class option for tasks across the IDE and CLI.
|
||
|
||
In our internal testing, Claude Sonnet 5 showed strong results across a range of coding scenarios, including particularly strong performance on CLI-style tasks. It also demonstrated excellent prompt-cache utilization and competitive latency at lower effort levels, making it a strong choice for developers who want fast, capable Sonnet-class performance in Copilot.
|
||
|
||
This model is billed at provider list pricing under Usage Based Billing. See GitHub [Copilot’s pricing for models and requests](https://docs.github.com/copilot/reference/copilot-billing/models-and-pricing) for details.
