NUEVA YORK (EFE).— Artificial intelligence company Anthropic has announced the launch of its new Claude Opus 4.7, a version that substantially improves on its predecessor’s software engineering and reasoning capabilities, but which comes with deliberate limitations in its cybersecurity features.
The launch of Opus 4.7 comes just two months after its previous version, 4.6, and is set to become the most powerful branding tool available to the general public and businesses.
However, Anthropic said the model is generally “less capable” than the Claude Mythos Preview, an advanced system that the company unveiled last week has limited access due to anticipated risks to global security.
Although Opus 4.7 is less capable in terms of cybersecurity than the Mythos Preview model, it includes automatic systems to detect and block high-risk requests related to cyber attacks.
This is also the first model to implement the proven security features in the Glasswing project, which goes back to the name “glass wing” or the transparent glass used to hide it from public view.
It is a cybersecurity protection model that many organizations have access to, including Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, CrowdStrike, JPMorgan Chase, Cisco, Broadcom, Palo Alto Networks, and the Linux Foundation.
The company also announced in a press release that Opus 4.7 outperformed competing models such as Google’s Gemini 3.1 Pro for agency coding and multidisciplinary reasoning. Likewise, Anthropic — a company built on OpenAI examples — notes that the new model has a new level of “extra force” control called xhigh (extra force), which allows developers to adjust “more precise control over the balance between reasoning and latency in complex problems.”
The announcement comes as President Donald Trump’s administration monitors the company.
A recent presentation of Project Glasswing prompted a high-level meeting of politicians and big Wall Street banks before they realized it could represent autonomous AI for the financial system and critical infrastructure.
Anthropic announced that the purchase price of Opus 4.7 will remain the same as version 4.6 ($5 per million entry tokens and $25 per million entry tokens) and will be available through its platform and Amazon cloud services. Bedrock, Google Cloud and Microsoft Foundry.
