Review

Claude Sonnet 5.5 is a fast first seat: a review came back in 11s at $0.0571, with 77% [64%–89%] recall. It ranks 1 of 17 and is measurably above 4 ranked models.

Against its pricier sibling the trade is clean. Claude Opus 5.5 cost 2.7× as much per review, took 33s, and measurably beats 9 ranked models, though the benchmark can't separate the two on recall. GPT-6.1 Sol lists at $2.00 / $10.00 per 1M tokens and Sonnet at $2.00 / $10.00, but a Sonnet review cost 1.4× Sol's. A Sol review took 28s, and again the recall gap isn't measurable.

The weak point is noise. Sonnet raised 2.0 [1.5–2.4] false alarms per clean PR. GPT-6 Luna and Gemini 3.1 Pro both averaged fewer, with intervals that don't overlap Sonnet's. If your team ignores noisy bots, pair Sonnet with a quieter seat or read reducing false positives.

Its misses include "Fix cache file length". The results post has the first look.

One note on scoring: an Anthropic judge is among the three, and its vote is dropped for this model.
