Anthropic Sued Over Usage Limits: $200 Plan Allegedly Delivers Only 6x Boost
新智元 · wechat · 2026-08-31
A developer sued Anthropic, alleging its $200/month Claude Max20x plan falsely advertises a 20x usage boost, delivering only 6-8x over the Pro plan. The discrepancy arises because Anthropic bases the multiplier on a 5-hour rolling window rather than the weekly usage cap that users typically hit. In contrast, OpenAI's Pro20x directly offers a 20x weekly limit. Additionally, Anthropic faces criticism for lack of transparency and compensation regarding bugs that caused quota drains, whereas OpenAI provided full resets and public fixes for similar issues.
