Claude (Anthropic) pricing

How Claude pricing works

Claude, from Anthropic, uses flat subscriptions with usage limits. Free is $0. Pro is $20 per month, or $17 per month billed annually. Max starts at $100 per month for 5x Pro usage, and there is a 20x tier. Team covers 2-150 users. Enterprise is $20 per seat plus usage at API rates.

What a credit or seat gets you

There are no credits on the consumer plans. Usage is limited over a rolling 5-hour window, with weekly limits on top. Max gives 5x or 20x the Pro limits and includes $100-$200 per month of API credits. You can buy optional usage credits at API rates.

Limits and overage risk

The rolling 5-hour window and weekly caps mean heavy bursts can hit a limit before the week is out. Going beyond them means upgrading or paying API rates for extra usage. The price of the Max 20x tier was not printed in the text we checked.
