One reason I haven't used Haiku in production at Socratify it's the lack of structured output so I hope they'll add it to Haiku 4.5 soon.

It's a bit weird it took Anthropic so long considering it's been ages since OpenAI and Google did it I know you could do it through tool calling but that always just seemed like a bit of a hack to me

Seems almost quaint in late 2025 to object to a workable technique because it "seemed like a bit of a hack"!

Fair enough! I was getting a failure rate on that was worse then OpenAI and Google and the developer semantics didn't really work for me.
