What are the context window limits?

On the Pro plan, most of our models have a maximum context window of 64K tokens or more. For these models, we commit to supporting at least 64K tokens. That being said, some models have a maximum context window of less than 64K tokens:

  • Llama 3 supports 8K tokens.

  • Dolphin 2.5 supports 16K tokens.

  • DBRX-Instruct supports 32K tokens.

For these models, we commit to supporting up to their respective context lengths.

On the Team plan, several models support 200k+ context windows:

  • Claude 3.5 Sonnet

  • Claude 3 Haiku

  • Claude 3 Sonnet

  • Claud Opus

  • Gemini 15. Pro

  • Gemini 1.5 Flash
