Anthropic's EU Claude Pro/Max terms unclear on commercial use

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Anthropic's terms of service for Claude Pro and Max users in the EU and Switzerland include a "Non-commercial use only" clause, which is absent in the US terms. Users are seeking clarification on whether this clause prohibits selling projects developed using these services, even after upgrading to a commercial plan. Support responses have been unhelpful, leading users to either ignore the clause, cancel their subscriptions, or switch to the less suitable Team plan, potentially reducing Anthropic's revenue. AI

IMPACT Ambiguity in terms of service could impact adoption and commercial use of AI tools by EU businesses.

RANK_REASON User-generated discussion and support interaction regarding terms of service, not a direct announcement or policy change from the company.
