1. High reasoning performance

• Retains strong reasoning capabilities despite being a smaller, faster model.
• Suitable for tasks requiring accurate logic and structured thinking.

2. Fast and cost-efficient

• Optimized for speed, making it ideal for real-time or high-volume workloads.
• Far cheaper than GPT-5 while maintaining solid capability.

3. Great for well-defined tasks

• Excels when prompts are precise and objectives are clearly specified.
• More predictable and stable for deterministic workflows.

4. Multimodal input

• Accepts text + image as input.
• Outputs text only.

5. Tool support

• Works with Web Search, File Search, Code Interpreter, MCP.
• (Does not support Image Generation as a tool and does not support Computer Use.)

1. Intelligence & Reasoning

• Highest capability in the Claude 3 family
• Near-human comprehension and fluency
• Excels at MMLU, GPQA, GSM8K, advanced reasoning tasks

2. Complex Problem Solving

• Best for research, strategy, multi-step planning
• Handles ambiguous, open-ended tasks with ease

3. Vision & Multimodal Capabilities

• Strong chart/graph understanding
• Processes documents, technical diagrams, and dense visual data

4. Recall & Long-Context Reasoning

• Near-perfect recall (>99% on NIAH benchmark)
• Handles very large documents and multi-file workflows

5. Enterprise-Grade Accuracy

• Significantly reduced hallucinations
• High correctness rate for factual queries
