14261426## Token counts on Claude Fable and Claude Mythos models
14271427
1428Claude Fable 5.1, Claude Mythos 5.1, Claude Fable 5, and Claude Mythos 5 share the tokenizer introduced with Claude Opus 4.7. A prompt counts the same on all four, and roughly 30 percent higher than on models before Claude Opus 4.7 (the exact increase depends on the content). The token counting endpoint counts under the tokenizer of the `model` you pass. To measure the difference for your workload, count the same request twice, once with your current model and once with the model you plan to move to, and compare the two `input_tokens` values.

14311431 **Billing and migration:** Usage and billing on these models reflect this tokenizer’s counts. When migrating from a model before Claude Opus 4.7, don’t reuse token counts measured on the older model to estimate costs or context window fit. Count your prompts with the `model` ID you plan to use (for example, `"claude-fable-5-1"`).
