I use it as much as my brain can handle and I never exceed my Max plan quota.

Just a warning for those not on the max plan; if you pay by the token or have the lower tier plans you can easily blow through $100s or cap your plan in under an hour. The rates for paying by the token are insane and the scaling from pro to max is also pretty crazy.

They made pro have many times more value than paying per token and then they made max again have 25x more tokens than pro on the $200 plan.

It’s a bit like being offered rice at $1 per grain (pay per token) or a tiny bag of rice for $20 (pro) or a truck load for $200. That’s the pricing structure right now.

So while i agree you can’t easily exceed the quota on the big plans it’s a little crazy how they’ve tiered pricing. I hope no one out there’s paying per token!

		They should publish the token limits not just talk about conversations or what average users can expect: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11145838-using-claude... For comparison’s sake, this is clear: https://support.cerebras.net/articles/9996007307-cerebras-co... And while the Cerebras service is pretty okay, their website otherwise kinda sucks - and yet you can find clear info!

		> I hope no one out there’s paying per token! Some companies are. Yes, for Claude Code. My co used to be like that as it's an easy ramp up instead of giving devs who might not use it that much a $150/mo seat; if you use it enough you can have a seat and save money, but if you're not touching $150 in credits a month just use the API. Oxide also recommends using API pricing. [0] 0: https://gist.github.com/david-crespo/5c5eaf36a2d20be8a3013ba...

Exactly I feel like my brain burns out after a few days. Like Im the limit already (yet im the maximizer also) its a very weird feeling
