project
Anthropic's premium Claude subscription tier, starting around $100/month, offering higher usage limits (such as "20x" or "5x" the standard plan).
No evidence-backed relationships are recorded.
Anthropic's redesigned Projects beta enforces one ceiling, 200 new threads a day, and it has not published a usage figure for a single thread. Subscribers see what a project drew only afterwards, in the Usage tab.
Reality
A class action filed September 8 says Anthropic sold Max on a multiple measured inside a session that resets every five hours, while the weekly caps added months later are the ones heavy users actually hit.
Reality
The complaint says Max's advertised 5x and 20x multipliers apply only inside rolling five-hour sessions that sit under a weekly cap, while Anthropic's own defence is that the terms were two hyperlinks away.
Reality
The 50% promotion that has run since May ends on September 14, and what replaces it sits below today's ceiling, so teams that planned September work around summer capacity are re-planning against a smaller weekly cap.
Reality
Claude Opus 5 is pitched as near-frontier at half the cost. The cost multiple moves with the workload, and every figure on offer is the vendor's own.
Reality
Anthropic meters Pro and Max on a rolling 5-hour window and a weekly cap, both counted in tokens. What drains them is re-read context, not how many questions you ask.
Reality
Anthropic says the mark does not change quality and that cancellations have not risen. Four Claude subscribers told Business Insider the mark is exactly why they left.
