Today, we are excited to announce the latest model from Anthropic. Claude Opus 4.5is generally available on Vertex AI. as Anthropic’s most advanced model yetIt’s great for coding, agents, vision, computer usage, and office work, and costs one-third of the previous Opus 4.1.
We remain committed to providing Vertex AI customers with even more model choices, and this is a core tenet of our platform. This new model is in addition to the latest Claude Sonnet 4.5 and Claude Haiku 4.5 models already available on Vertex AI. For customers already building with Claude Sonnet 4.5, Opus 4.5 serves as an upgrade that provides state-of-the-art performance across existing use cases.
When you build with Opus 4.5 on Vertex AI, you get a unified AI development platform to quickly build, deploy, and operate AI applications and agents, backed by Google Cloud’s reliable, high-performance infrastructure, secure platform controls and advanced AI protections by default, and the Agent Builder stack.
How Opus 4.5 helps your business – from complex coding to more capable agents
- Using agent tools: This model, combined with Anthropic’s next wave of tool usage improvements, will enable more capable agents to perform new behaviors. For example, tool search allows agents to dynamically discover hundreds of tools without bloating the context window.
- coding: This model can turn days-long development projects into hours-long tasks, providing broader language support and enhanced behavior such as more efficient code, better test coverage, and cleaner architectural choices, all working independently.
- Office task agent: This model significantly improves spreadsheet, slide, and document creation with improved memory to maintain context and consistency between files.
- Financial analysis: This model can connect the dots across complex information systems. This includes regulatory filings, market reports, and internal data to enable advanced predictive modeling and proactive compliance.
- Cyber security: This model brings professional-level analysis to security workflows, correlation logs, vulnerability databases, and threat intelligence to support threat detection and incident response.
Built on Vertex AI, our unified AI development platform
Vertex AI is a trusted open platform for building, deploying, and scaling differentiated AI applications and agents with unconstrained choice.
