Frontier models
Strategic choices for enterprise AI adoption
Not all models are created equal. The latest frontier systems including GPT-5 and Claude 4.5 are redefining enterprise AI through distinct architectures and strengths.
GPT-5 uses dynamic model routing to optimise performance and cost, while Claude 4.5 adjusts reasoning depth within a single model, prioritising interpretability and alignment. Both enable seamless upgrades, support autonomous workflows, and signal a shift toward more capable, persistent systems.
Selecting the right model for the task is now a strategic decision.
