Claude Opus 4.8 vs Llama 4 Scout: Overview
Claude Opus 4.8 is Anthropic's most capable generally available large language model, released on May 28, 2026 as an incremental upgrade to Claude Opus 4.7. The model accepts text and image inputs and produces text outputs, with a 1 million token context window on the Claude API, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud Vertex AI (200k tokens on Microsoft Foundry) and up to 128k max output tokens. It uses adaptive thinking and supports adjustable effort tiers — high by default, with extra and max tiers available for more demanding tasks. A fast mode operates at approximately 2.5x standard speed. The model is described by Anthropic as a hybrid reasoning model designed for advanced coding, agentic workflows, long-context reasoning, and professional knowledge work.
Key behavioral improvements over Opus 4.7 include substantially reduced rates of unreported code flaws, improved honesty in self-assessment, and better tool-calling reliability. On Anthropic's Super-Agent benchmark, Opus 4.8 completes every case end-to-end, and it scores 84% on Online-Mind2Web for computer-use and browser-agent tasks. Alongside the model, Anthropic launched Dynamic Workflows in Claude Code (research preview), which enables Claude to orchestrate hundreds of parallel subagents for codebase-scale tasks such as large migrations. The Messages API was also updated to accept mid-task system messages without breaking prompt caching, improving support for long-running agentic pipelines.
Llama 4 Scout, released on April 5, 2025, is one of Meta AI’s first Llama 4 multimodal models, alongside Maverick. It accepts text + image inputs and produces text outputs, with a knowledge cutoff of August 2024. Scout is notable for its extremely large context window of 10 million tokens, making it well-suited for analyzing very long documents, extended conversations, or large codebases.
Architecturally, Scout uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) system with 16 experts, activating ~17B parameters per inference from a pool of ~109B total parameters, balancing capacity with efficiency. It officially supports 12 languages (including English, Arabic, French, Hindi, and Spanish), while offering multimodal reasoning for images (captioning, Q&A, recognition). Meta highlights that Scout can run on a single Nvidia H100 GPU, making it more accessible than larger-scale Llama 4 models. However, its output token limit is far smaller than its 10M input window, image input support is still constrained, and license restrictions apply for large-scale commercial deployments.
