Following the dramatic increase in demand for the Claud Code artificial ielligence tools, the American company Ahropic announced that new restrictions will be imposed on its shared plans on September 1 (August 1). This is aimed at corolling the consumption of high -end users and dealing with abuses such as accou sharing and access sales.
According to the ahropic announceme, these limitations include two parts:
1. A general ceiling for weekly consumption
2. A separate ceiling for the company’s most advanced model, Claude Opus 4
These restrictions apply to the company’s various shared plans, including a $ 2 project (Pro) and MAX designs at $ 1 and $ 2 per moh. Max project users can, of course, make surplus consumption at an extra charge at the API rate.
Ahropic has emphasized that most users will not be affected by this change, and restrictions target only about 2 % of subscribers who use Claude Code permanely and without ierruption.
According to an Aropic spokesman, the Pro Design users can expect 1 to 2 hours of weekly use of the Sonnet 4. In the 100 -dollar Max design, this number reaches 1 to 2 hours for Sonnet 4 and 2 to 4 hours for Opus 4. Users of the MAX project will also be able to use the SONNET 4 to 4 hours a moh at $ 1 a moh and OPUS 4. However, the ahropic pois out that the amou of consumption may vary depending on the volume of the code or type of project.
These restrictions have been announced as Claude Code has been partially or completely disrupted in the past moh; A topic that may have been due to the excessive pressure of some users on the company’s infrastructure. Ahropic had previously announced that it had been forced to manage users’ consumption due to processing restrictions; This is a problem that most artificial ielligence providers are facing.
In rece mohs, several other companies in the field of artificial ielligence -based coding tools have also revised pricing and consumption models. Including Anysphere (Cursor tool developer) as well as Replit, which both imposed restrictions on high users in June.
Ahropic has announced at the end that it is seeking solutions to support long -term and professional use of Claud Code in the future, but now restricting consumption will help better service sustainability.
