Anthropic has announced several updates to the API that allow developers to lower token usage and boost throughput with Claude 3.7 Sonnet. The improvements in Anthropic API include cache-aware rate limits, easier prompt caching, and efficient use of tokens. Collectively, these updates will enable users to handle more requests within their current rate limits and reduce costs, all with minimal changes to their existing code.

Highlighting the importance of efficient coding, Anthropic stated that users can optimise prompt caching to enhance throughput and make better use of their existing rate limits. It explained that prompt caching enables developers to save and reuse commonly accessed context between API calls.

Moreover, Anthropic highlighted that Claude is already capable of interacting with external client-side tools and functions. The update will empower users to provide Claude with their own custom tools to perform tasks such as extracting structured data from unstructured text or automating simple tasks through APIs.
