Anthropic’s September 22 announcement of Claude Opus 5.5, which explicitly stated that Sonnet 5.5 and Haiku 5.5 would follow “in the coming weeks,” is the dominant catalyst behind the tightly clustered market-implied odds favoring late September or early October. Traders are pricing in the lab’s recent cadence—Sonnet 5 shipped June 30, four months after Sonnet 4.6—while noting the absence of a precise date, model card, or pricing details. Competitive pressure from OpenAI and Google model updates, plus Anthropic’s pattern of rapid mid-tier follow-ons after flagship releases, supports the near-even probabilities across September 27–October 3 windows. Key swing factors include any additional developer-conference signals or internal testing leaks that could accelerate or slip the timeline before the October 15 resolution threshold.

Claude Sonnet refers to a model by Anthropic explicitly named Sonnet. Qualifying models include Claude Sonnet 5.1, Claude Sonnet 5.5, Sonnet 6, or any other Sonnet variants. Models under any other name, such as Opus, Haiku, Fable, or Mythos, will not qualify, unless the model is explicitly and officially named Sonnet by Anthropic.
A qualifying model must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice.
The release must be either clearly defined and publicly announced by Anthropic as being accessible to the general public or otherwise made publicly accessible and explicitly labeled within the company's official website. Labeling errors, placeholder text, or version names displayed on the website that do not correspond to a model that is actually accessible to the general public will not qualify.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Anthropic, with additional verification from a consensus of credible reporting.
