Anthropic shifts Fab 5 to metered billing amid competitor flat-rate offerings

Anthropic is transitioning its "Fab 5" model to a metered token billing system on July 12th, a move that has raised concerns among users. This change comes as competitors like OpenAI offer models such as GPT-5.6 Sol and Grok 4.5 under flat-rate subscription tiers, which provide unrestricted access. The decision to shift to per-token billing for Fab 5, while competitors offer unlimited usage, has led to speculation about potential user migration and whether Anthropic might reconsider its pricing strategy.
