Claude Haiku 5.5 Guide: Tiered API Pricing, Differences from Haiku 4.5, and Migration

Anthropic released Claude Haiku 5.5 on 2026-10-07. For prompts up to 100,000 tokens it costs just $0.10/$0.50 per million tokens, one tenth of Haiku 4.5. But a request whose prompt is over 100,000 tokens is billed at $0.50/$2.50 in full, and the new tokenizer counts the same text as roughly 30% more tokens. This guide covers official specs, both price tiers, cost math that accounts for both traps, and the changes that break or alter behavior when migrating from Haiku 4.5.

AI Agent Long-Term Memory Is the New Attack Surface: What MemGhost and GhostWriter Mean for Enterprises

The transparency obligations under Article 50 of the EU AI Act apply from August 2, 2026: Articles 50(1) and 50(2) govern providers (informing users they are interacting with AI, machine-readable marking of synthetic content), while 50(3) and 50(4) govern deployers (informing people subject to emotion recognition, disclosing deepfakes). This article separates the two roles, walks through the exemptions and disclosure timing, and explains how Taiwanese companies should approach the question of where they sit.
