After months of user complaints, Anthropic debuts new $200/month AI plan

Two-tiered “Claude Max” expands rate limits and offers traffic priority to subscribers.

One of the downsides of a relatively large context window with Claude (the amount of text it can process at once) has been that long conversations or inclusions of many reference documents (such as code files) fill up usage limits quickly. Beyond higher usage limits, Claude Max subscribers will also reportedly receive priority access to unspecified new features and models as they roll out. Users who subscribe to Max will also receive "priority access during high traffic periods," suggesting Anthropic has implemented a tiered queue system that prioritizes its highest-paying customers during server congestion.
