What drives sentiment analysis cost

Short text in, a label or score out: the cheapest shape an API call can take. Output pricing is irrelevant at this size. Because these run in bulk over historical data as often as in real time, the batch API discount typically applies, and the effective rate lands well below list.

For Claude Opus 5 specifically, that means output tokens cost 5.0x more than input, at $25.00 vs $5.00 per MTok. At this use case’s 500/100 token split, output accounts for 50% of the $0.005000 per-call cost.

Batch API: 50% off all tokens

Submit requests asynchronously and receive 50% off all token costs. This works best for offline pipelines where latency requirements are flexible.
