Claude 4.7 and later models and Claude Mythos Preview use a newer tokenizer that contributes to their improved performance on a wide range of tasks. This tokenizer produces approximately 30% more tokens for the same text. The exact increase depends on the content and workload shape. Claude Sonnet 4.6 and earlier models use the previous tokenizer. -For Claude Platform on AWS pricing, see Claude Platform on AWS pricing.- ## Cloud platform pricing @@ -79,6 +79,4 @@ Claude Platform on AWS bills through AWS Marketplace using Claude Consumption Un | Cost visibility | Real-time breakdown in the Claude Console (access through the AWS Console); AWS Cost Explorer shows aggregated CCU | -Claude Consumption Units.
