Claude Opus 4.5

Anthropic

Claude Opus 4.5, released by Anthropic in November 2025, is a large language model from the Claude 4.5 family built for demanding reasoning tasks, advanced code generation, and complex agentic workflows. It features a 200K token context window, 64K maximum output tokens, native image understanding, and extended thinking with configurable effort levels. Opus 4.5 targets deep analytical work, multi-step tool orchestration, and applications requiring sustained reasoning across long, complex tasks.

Alibaba / Qwen

Qwen2.5-Omni-7B is a 7-billion-parameter end-to-end multimodal model from Alibaba, released in March 2025 as part of the Omni series designed to unify perception and generation across text, images, audio, and video in a single model architecture. Unlike pipeline-based multimodal systems, it processes all modalities end-to-end and can generate both text and speech outputs, targeting use cases in voice assistants, multimodal agents, and real-time interactive applications. Its compact size made it notable for on-device and resource-constrained multimodal deployments.
