Claude Haiku 5.5 (High) vs GPT-6 Astra (Medium)

What the captured data shows

Haiku 5.5 High has lower listed prices and higher output throughput than GPT-6 Astra Medium. Astra has the higher intelligence index and a shorter first-token delay in this snapshot. The two timing measures point in different directions, making the response length and intended interaction important to an evaluation.

Which model fits your workflow

For conversational use, observe when useful information first appears. For a longer document or analysis, measure completion time and inspect the finished work. Hold the reasoning settings constant across examples and retain the task inputs so the result can be reproduced.

Decision takeaway

Astra Medium leads the captured aggregate index and initial-delay figure; Haiku High offers lower listed rates and higher output throughput.
