What drives legal analysis cost
Legal work is heavy on both sides: long source documents in, detailed analysis out. It is also the case where accuracy is worth the most, so the cheapest-viable-model logic that works for classification does not apply. Long contracts frequently cross long-context pricing thresholds, which can re-rate the entire request rather than just the excess.
For Claude Fable 5.1 specifically, that means output tokens cost 5.0x more than input, at $50.00 vs $10.00 per MTok. At this use case’s 10,000/4,000 token split, output accounts for 67% of the $0.3000 per-call cost.
