TL;DR Claude Opus 4.7 raises the vision ceiling to 3.75 megapixels (2,576 pixels), letting Claude read dense screenshots and complex charts without losing detail Autonomous software engineering is the headline upgrade - Opus 4.7 can handle complex, long-running tasks with reduced need for constant direction A new xhigh effort level for extended thinking gives developers explicit control over the speed-versus-reasoning tradeoff Improved instruction-following and resistance to prompt injection make it safer for production use Pricing remains unchanged at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens - this is the new standard, not a premium tier Opus 4.7 is a meaningful step forward.
