Common questions
Which Claude plan is cheapest?
Claude Pro at $20/mo. The cheapest plan is not always the best value — compare Req/$1 in the calculator.
How many plans does Claude offer?
3 tiers tracked, 3 currently active. Every tier is in the plans table below with its price, models and usage ceiling.
What are the Claude plans?
The Claude plans are Anthropic’s subscriptions for Claude Code and the Claude apps — Pro and the Max tiers — unlocking the Claude family of models at rising usage ceilings.
Which models do the Claude plans include?
The tracked tiers list Claude Fable 5, the Claude Opus 4.8 flagship tier, Claude Sonnet 5 and the Claude Haiku 4.5 family. Pro includes Fable 5 and Sonnet 5; the Max tiers add Opus 4.8.
Can I use the Claude plans with any agent (BYOK)?
No — the consumer plans are exclusive to Claude Code and the Claude apps. Third-party agents reach the same models through the Anthropic API, which bills separately.
How does Claude plan billing work?
Plans are usage-capped rather than token-budgeted: usage runs on a 5-hour rolling window plus weekly caps. Because there is no published token math, the calculator marks the plan’s Req/$1 as a proxy estimate.
Who are the Claude plans for?
Developers who work inside Claude Code and want the Claude model family first-party, with predictable monthly pricing and no CLI lock-in concerns because there is no BYOK on consumer plans.
