Claude Opus 4.7 is now much better at following your instructions, giving you more accurate results.

It can now see and understand high-resolution images better, accepting pictures up to 2,576 pixels on the long side.

The new Opus 4.7 model is also more effective at analyzing financial information.

A year later, Cerebras sought to raise more cash. In September, it raised $1.1 billion at an $8.1 billion post-money valuation led by Fidelity and Atreides.
