Anthropic launches Claude Ultra subscription, doubling price for unlimited usage

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Anthropic has introduced a new subscription tier called Claude Ultra, which appears to offer the same capabilities as the Claude Max plan but without the 5-hour usage limit for verified accounts. This new tier costs $200 per month, double the price of the Max plan, leading to user questions about the value proposition and whether they are paying for the removal of the time restriction. The Ultra plan provides access to the same token count as Max, but removes the daily cap on usage for those who are verified. AI

IMPACT This new subscription tier may influence user adoption and pricing expectations for AI assistant services, particularly for power users who hit usage limits.

RANK_REASON Product tier update for an existing AI model.
