Inhaltsangabe

This book was written by Claude Fable 5. About Claude Fable 5. And Haiku, and Sonnet, and Opus, and the one you can't buy no matter how much budget you have.

The author edited every line, and the book is honest about that arrangement on page one, because a book about judging AI output that hides its own AI output isn't much of a book. Open Claude and you'll see a dropdown of model names. Most people pick one and never think about it again, or they pick the newest-sounding name every time, on autopilot. Both habits cost real money.

The five Claude models aren't five versions of one product where the newest replaces the last. They're five sizes of one family, built for different jobs at very different prices, and the same question costs ten times more on the top tier than the bottom one.

Inside, in plain English: what each of the five models is actually for, what each one costs on both the app plans and the API (verified against Anthropic's published prices, not guessed), the three questions that pick the right model for any task, and the one rule that outlives every model name on the cover: start cheap, escalate on failure.

Chapter 9 shows the whole framework running a real business: a 60-plus book publishing catalog, a novel drafted by a cheap model and judged by an expensive one, and a thirteen-station production line run by a single owner.

The names will change. The method won't. That's the point.
