About Mercury 3
Mercury 3 is a hosted generative AI model from Inception for developers building interactive applications. It uses a diffusion-based approach to generate text in parallel and supports streaming responses, tool use, structured outputs, and multimodal input including text, images, and audio. Through the Inception API, teams can use it for conversational assistants, voice applications, search and browsing workflows, tutoring, and other agentic tasks that benefit from responsive generation. The model is available through Inception’s API and named inference partners, with OpenAI-compatible API access for existing applications. Developers can evaluate output quality and latency, then integrate the model into their software using the documented API and SDK ecosystem. Usage is token-metered, with a free allocation and paid input/output token rates; enterprise options include dedicated capacity and support.

Claude Sonnet 5.5
Claude Sonnet 5.5 is Anthropic’s mid-tier Claude 5.5 model designed for fast, well-scoped everyday work, coding, and professional document creation. Anthropic says it runs more than 30% faster than Claude Sonnet 5 and typically costs up to 30% less per task while keeping the same base token pricing. The model shows major gains in agentic coding, with a 70.6% score on Terminal-Bench 4.0 and stronger performance on FrontierCode and CursorBench than its predecessor. Sonnet 5.5 also performs strongly on knowledge work, computer use, chart understanding, and long-horizon tasks, in some cases approaching Claude Opus 5.5 at higher effort settings. Anthropic positions it as especially useful for debugging, routine coding, collaboration, and producing polished documents, slides, spreadsheets, and user interfaces. Claude Sonnet 5.5 is available across Anthropic’s platforms as well as AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
