Anthropic Debuts $200-per-Month Subscription to Claude AI Model

Anthropic has debuted a higher-priced subscription version of its Claude artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot. The startup’s Max plan, announced Wednesday (April 9), is designed for users who work extensively with Claude and require expanded access for their most important tasks. This plan also gives users priority access to Anthropic’s newest features and models. “The top request from our most active users has been expanded Claude access,” the announcement said. “The new Max plan delivers exactly that. With up to 20x higher usage limits, you can maintain momentum on your most demanding projects with little disruption.” According to Anthropic, the Max plan lets users choose from two levels: “Expanded Usage,” a plan priced at $100 per month and designed for frequent users who work with Claude on a variety of tasks; and Maximum Flexibility, costing $200 per month, for daily users who collaborate often with Claude for most tasks. “More usage unlocks more possibilities to collaborate with Claude, whether for work or life,” the company said. “At work, it means you can build Projects around any work task—whether it be writing, software, or data analysis—and really collaborate with Claude until your outcomes are just right.” Anthropic rival artificial intelligence startup OpenAI debuted a $200-per-month “research grade” version of its ChatGPT tool in December.
