Anthropic has been extending a 50% increase to Claude Code's weekly usage limits since May, without updating its official plan or billing details. This promotion, initially set to end in July, has been repeatedly extended and is now slated to run until August 31, 2026. The increased limits apply to Pro, Max, and Team seats, as well as legacy Enterprise plans, but not to consumption-based Enterprise or Free plans. The company has cited strong demand and capacity constraints as reasons for not making the increase permanent, though they hope to do so in the future. AI
