I spend $200 a month for Claude's Max plan and lean on it every day. I metered 30 days of that work at Anthropic's own API rates: $3,959.78 — a near twenty-to-one discount, and probably the cheapest frontier-AI access of the foreseeable future.

Two Days of Phone Troubleshooting. Claude Code Needed 15 Minutes.
Five users couldn't reliably hear callers on their softphones, and a day and a half of conventional troubleshooting pinned it to their PCs without explaining it.
