Claude Sonnet 4.5

Anthropic

Claude Sonnet 4.5, released by Anthropic in September 2025, is a large language model from the Claude 4.5 family that balances response quality and efficiency for coding, agentic tasks, and analytical work. It features a 200K token context window (extendable to 1M tokens in beta), 64K maximum output tokens, native image understanding, and extended thinking support. Sonnet 4.5 targets use cases that require a balance of throughput and reasoning depth, including code generation, data analysis, and multi-step agentic pipelines.

Xiaomi

MiMo-V2-Flash, released by Xiaomi on December 16, 2025, is a Mixture-of-Experts large language model with 309 billion total parameters and 15 billion active parameters per inference, designed for high-speed reasoning and agentic workflows. It features a 256K token context window, processes up to 150 tokens per second, and was trained on 27 trillion tokens. MiMo-V2-Flash targets open-source deployments requiring fast, capable coding and reasoning with an efficient inference footprint, under an MIT license.
