Both Claude 3 Haiku and GPT-5.5 Pro are production API models. For cost-sensitive production traffic, Claude 3 Haiku has better economics on the blended 1M-in + 1M-out scale. For maximum capability, weight the benchmark table for your domain. Many production stacks route cheap models for drafts and a frontier model for the hard turn, which is usually cheaper than sending everything to the expensive API.
Can I switch between Claude 3 Haiku and GPT-5.5 Pro in my app?
