requesty routes this id across every provider serving claude-opus-4-8, picking on price and health and failing over automatically. the id stays valid when a provider changes underneath it

Base url is https://router.requesty.ai/v1 for every id here. One key reaches the whole catalog.

from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI(    api_key="YOUR_REQUESTY_API_KEY",    base_url="https://router.requesty.ai/v1",) response = client.chat.completions.create(    model="claude-opus-4-8",    messages=[        {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in one paragraph."},    ],) print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Change the base url, use your Requesty key, set the model to any id in the call pane. Existing OpenAI SDK code needs no other edit, and the same key reaches every other model in the catalog, so switching later is a one-parameter change. Browse all models

notes

reference

Opus 4.8 is the next generation of Anthropic's Opus family, built for long-running, asynchronous agents. Building on the coding and agentic strengths of Opus 4.7, it delivers stronger performance on complex, multi-step tasks and more reliable agentic execution across extended workflows. It is especially effective for asynchronous agent pipelines where tasks unfold over time - large codebases, multi-stage debugging, and end-to-end project orchestration. Beyond coding, Opus 4.8 brings improved knowledge work capabilities - from drafting documents and building presentations to analyzing data. It maintains coherence across very long outputs and extended sessions, making it a strong default for tasks that require persistence, judgment, and follow-through.

questions 7

Which providers serve claude-opus-4-8?
claude-opus-4-8 is available from 3 providers through Requesty: Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI. All endpoints share one OpenAI-compatible API and one key, and Requesty fails over between them automatically.
How much does claude-opus-4-8 cost?
Pricing starts at $5.00 per million input tokens and $25.00 per million output tokens on the cheapest provider. Prices vary by provider and region; the table above shows every endpoint. Requesty charges exactly what the upstream provider charges, with no markup.
Is claude-opus-4-8 open weights?
No. claude-opus-4-8 is a proprietary model from Anthropic, served through Anthropic's own API and licensed cloud platforms.
What is the context window of claude-opus-4-8?
claude-opus-4-8 supports up to 1M tokens of context, with up to 128K output tokens per response. Some providers expose a smaller window; check the per-endpoint context column above.
Which provider is fastest for claude-opus-4-8?
In recent production traffic through Requesty, Google Vertex AI had the lowest median time to first token (966ms) for claude-opus-4-8. Latency shifts over time, so Requesty's latency-based routing picks the fastest healthy provider per request automatically.
How do I use claude-opus-4-8 with the OpenAI SDK?
Install the OpenAI SDK, set base_url to "https://router.requesty.ai/v1", set your API key to your Requesty key, and set the model to "claude-opus-4-8" or any endpoint id from the table above. The quickstart section shows Python, JavaScript and cURL snippets.
Should I call claude-opus-4-8 by its managed id or a provider id?
Use the managed id, "claude-opus-4-8". Requesty picks which of the 3 providers serves each request based on price and health, and fails over when one degrades, so the id keeps working while the routing changes underneath it. There is also an EU-only id, "claude-opus-4-8@eu", which routes the same way but only through EU-hosted providers. Send a provider id like "anthropic/claude-opus-4-8" only when you need one specific deployment and want no failover.
