Anthropic's July 24 release of Claude Opus 5 drives the overwhelming 94% implied probability for claude-opus-5-max, as the model quickly established near-frontier performance on coding, agentic, and knowledge-work benchmarks while running at half the cost of Claude Fable 5. It became the default on Claude Max plans, supports extended context with thinking enabled by default, and ranks at or near the top of independent leaderboards for practical tasks. No major competing releases have emerged in the three weeks since launch. A surprise model drop or benchmark reversal from OpenAI or Google before August 24 remains the main scenario that could meaningfully alter trader consensus.

Results from the "Rank" column under the "Text Arena | Overall" Leaderboard tab at https://arena.ai/leaderboard/text/overall-no-style-control with style control off (Adjustments: None) and filtered for "Models" will be used to resolve this market.
No new model will be added to this market after market creation. Any model not explicitly listed in this market will be encompassed under the "Other" option.
Models will be ordered primarily by their leaderboard rank at the market’s check time. If two or more models are tied on rank, they will be ordered by their Arena score, including any underlying, unrounded, granular values reflected in the data below the leaderboard. If a tie still remains, alphabetical order of model names as listed in this market group (full string, including suffixes such as “-thinking”) will be used as a final tiebreaker (e.g., if two models remain tied, “claude-opus-4-6” would be ranked ahead of “claude-opus-4-6-thinking”). This market will resolve to the model that comes first according to this order.
The resolution source for this market is the arena.ai Text Arena (Overall). If this resolution source is unavailable at check time, this market will remain open until the leaderboard comes back online and will resolve based on the first check after it becomes available. If it becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve to "Other".
