Claude Haiku 4.5 vs o1-pro

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across knowledge, coding, math, and reasoning.

Claude Haiku 4.5 is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 64 to 33. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

o1-pro is also the more expensive model on tokens at $150.00 input / $600.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.80 input / $4.00 output per 1M tokens for Claude Haiku 4.5. That is roughly 150.0x on output cost alone. o1-pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Claude Haiku 4.5 is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use.

Quick Verdict

Pick Claude Haiku 4.5 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. o1-pro only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you want the stronger reasoning-first profile.
