Bold of you to think individuals are a big part of their marketshare and explosive growth. My company introduced enterprise last month and the bill was US$110k for a few dozen folks using it Claude Code and Design.

Do the Pro and Max plans help with word of mouth and whatnot? Sure, but the individual with a Max plan (or 4...) are all subsidized by the big spenders

Companies up to 150 licenses are encouraged to use the Team plans instead of the Enterprise plans. And those work much more like personal plans and are included in this promotion

Individually those customers are a lot smaller than the big enterprise contracts, but there are a lot more of them

I hate that you're right, but you're right. Twitter and HN can scream and yell as loud as they want but the fact is, enterprises are going to use Fable via API and pay the bills. In fact, restricting individuals probably makes it MORE likely that enterprises will pony up.

		That is doubtful. Many enterprises still yap about "choosing the right model for the task" and Sonnet, as if it would magically become better by holding it differently. To make engineers ask for Fable at work, you first need to give them a taste of what it can do at home. What better than greenfield side projects, unconstrained by the overhead at work?

36 people using Claude is not $1.3m per year. I can assure you that you do not know the full details of that agreement, assuming any of those figures are true.

		There are plenty of FAANG (and adjacent Big Tech and FAANG wannabe start ups) staffers that burn $10k/month or more on Claude tokens. Just ask around if you're in Silicon Valley. $10k/month * 36 people = $4.3m per year. $1.3m per year is a relative bargain!
