Claude Code's "20x" plan called inflated; Codex says its 20X is exactly what it says
AlchainHust · x · 2026-08-31
A comparison of the two $200 membership tiers: Claude Code's "20x" means 20x the Pro quota per 5-hour window, but the actual weekly limit is only 10x. OpenAI Codex engineering lead Thibault Sottiaux responded that in Codex, the 20X applies specifically to weekly usage limits, with no 5-hour limits on either Pro plan—the Pro 20X is precisely 20x the Plus subscription's usage, exactly what it says on the tin. The poster called it a slap in the face for Anthropic.
