* Fixed assumptions for the example monthly cost: 100 calls/day · 2,000 input / 800 output tokens per call · off-peak rates · 30% cache hit rate · 30-day month — the same formula and defaults as the cost calculator. USD models are converted to CNY at the reference rate for comparison (see summary). Costs within display precision are marked tied; neither side is favored.
Comparison summary (fixed usage basis)
- Estimated monthly cost: Claude Haiku 5.5 ¥11.00 vs GPT-6.1 Sol ¥218.87 on a common CNY basis (list prices $1.64 / $32.58) — at this fixed usage, Claude Haiku 5.5 is cheaper by ¥207.87/month.
- Cost ratio: under this basis, GPT-6.1 Sol costs about 19.9× Claude Haiku 5.5 (Claude Haiku 5.5 is ~95% cheaper). The ratio holds only at the current list prices, reference rate and fixed usage assumptions; it says nothing about capability, output quality or overall value.
- Input unit price (off-peak / single-price basis): list prices $0.1 vs $2; after conversion Claude Haiku 5.5 is lower (by ≈ ¥12.76/1M tokens).
- Output unit price (off-peak / single-price basis): list prices $0.5 vs $10; after conversion Claude Haiku 5.5 is lower (by ≈ ¥63.82/1M tokens).
- Cache-hit price (off-peak basis): Claude Haiku 5.5 $0.01; GPT-6.1 Sol $0.1.
- Context window: Claude Haiku 5.5 1024K vs GPT-6.1 Sol 1050K — GPT-6.1 Sol is 1.0× Claude Haiku 5.5.
- Modalities: identical — Text, Image understanding.
- Price sources: Anthropic official pricing (verified 2026-10-28), OpenAI API pricing (verified 2026-10-28); unit: official list price per 1M tokens (Claude Haiku 5.5 in USD, GPT-6.1 Sol in USD).
These are computations from published list prices under fixed call volume, token usage, cache assumptions and billing rules. They are not rankings of capability, output quality or overall value, and do not constitute purchase advice.
