Claude Opus 5 (Anthropic, Jul 24, 2026). Scores three times higher than competitors on the ARC-AGI 3 reasoning benchmark and runs about 2.5x faster in its new Fast Mode, at the same price as its predecessor.
Cursor Ultra ($200/month). Gives power users 20x the usage of the Pro plan, made possible by multi-year compute deals with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google - a bet that coding agents are now a subscription habit, not a novelty.
