Introducing Claude Opus 5, Live on UsePod.
Anthropic launched Claude Opus 5 today--a thoughtful and proactive model that approaches Fable 5's frontier intelligence at half the price. It's already live on UsePod.
State-of-the-art performance on Frontier-Bench and GDPval-AA, particularly strong on FrontierCode 1.1 with Fable-level debugging and root-cause analysis. Features adjustable effort control (low/medium/high) to balance cost and capability per request, autonomous error recovery, and self-verification without human intervention.
Built for coding, agents, and enterprise workflows. Anthropic prices this the same Opus 4.8, but the UsePod marketplace prices it at 60% off at $2.20/$11 per million in/out.
Laguna S 2.1 is live on UsePod!
Poolside launched Laguna S 2.1--an open-weight Mixture-of-Experts coding model that beats rivals 10x its size. It's live today on UsePod.
Enjoy 118B total parameters with only 8B active per token, 1M token context window, and frontier coding performance: 78.5% on SWE-Bench Multilingual (topping the published leaderboard), 70.2% on Terminal-Bench 2.1, and 40.4% on DeepSWE v1.1. Built specifically for agentic software engineering and long-horizon coding tasks, with max thinking mode that lets the model set its own test-time compute budget.
The efficiency is remarkable--8B active parameters punching at the level of models with 80B+ active parameters, small enough to run on a single NVIDIA DGX Spark, yet capable enough to compete with the largest coding models. Open-weight under OpenMDW-1.1 license, designed for complex workflows, interactive development, and multi-step software engineering.
Available now through UsePod's marketplace at 20% market pricing.
Introducing Kimi K3, Live on UsePod
Moonshot AI launched Kimi K3 today—the world's first open 3T-class model. It's already live on UsePod.
Enjoy 2.8 trillion parameters, 1 million token context window, and frontier performance competitive with GPT-5.6 Sol and Fable 5. Open frontier intelligence, available now through UsePod's marketplace.
