Claude Opus 4.7 is Anthropic's latest Opus model, built for long-running asynchronous agents and carrying forward the coding and agentic focus of Opus 4.6. It ships with a 1,000,000 token context window and API pricing of $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. On OpenRouter it's available as anthropic/claude-opus-4.7, which means BYOK customers on OpenClaw VPS can point an assistant at it today.
What it costs on OpenClaw VPS
OpenClaw VPS charges a flat $39.99 per month per assistant on accrued usage with a hard cap, and customers bring their own API key. At Opus 4.7's published rates, $39.99 of raw Anthropic spend buys you roughly 8 million input tokens, or about 1.6 million output tokens, or a realistic mix somewhere in between. A 24/7 personal assistant doing heavy reasoning and long tool-use traces will blow past that quickly. The flat OpenClaw cap covers hosting and the assistant runtime, not the model calls themselves, so Opus 4.7 usage lands on your Anthropic bill.
When you'd switch to this
The million token context is the main reason to route an assistant to Opus 4.7. If you want it to hold a long project history, a full codebase, months of Telegram chat, or a deep research dossier in memory across turns, there is headroom that cheaper models do not have. The asynchronous agent framing fits workloads where the assistant plans, calls tools, and loops for a while before responding. At $5 in and $25 out per million tokens, it is not the model you want for casual small talk. Save it for the runs where depth and context actually pay for themselves.
Bottom line
Opus 4.7 is the model to pick when your OpenClaw assistant needs serious context and long agent loops, and you are comfortable with Opus-tier API spend on top of the $39.99 hosting cap.
