# Opus 4.8 on AI Gateway > Source: > Published: 2026-05-28 07:00:00+00:00 Claude Opus 4.8 is now available on [Vercel AI Gateway](https://vercel.com/ai-gateway). Claude Opus 4.8 is built for long-horizon agentic execution and handles complex, multi-step coding tasks like refactors that previously required human correction mid-task. The model also produces clearer, less hedgy prose for knowledge work like drafting documents, analyzing data, and building presentations. To use Opus 4.8, set model to `anthropic/claude-opus-4.8` in the [AI SDK](https://ai-sdk.dev/). AI Gateway provides a unified API for calling models, tracking usage and cost, and configuring retries, failover, and performance optimizations for higher-than-provider uptime. It includes built-in [custom reporting](https://vercel.com/changelog/custom-reporting-ai-gateway), [Zero Data Retention support](https://vercel.com/blog/zdr-on-ai-gateway), [dynamic provider sorting by latency & cost](https://vercel.com/changelog/sort-providers-by-cost-latency-or-throughput-on-ai-gateway), and more. AI Gateway reflects provider pricing with no markup and does not charge a platform fee on inference, including on [Bring Your Own Key](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway#bring-your-own-key) (BYOK) requests.
