Anthropic is transitioning its enterprise customers from flat-rate seats to per-token billing.

Anthropic silently removed Claude Opus 4.5 and deprecated Opus 4, leading to numerous user complaints.

Token output at large companies like Meta and Microsoft is measured, sometimes via leaderboards or tools showing money spent on AI tokens.

The CEO of Anthropic stated that if the company's revenue is not $1 trillion or even $800 billion, it could go bankrupt due to compute costs.

Most of the money in enterprise AI is now going to Anthropic, and it's becoming the go-to choice for companies buying AI for the first time.

Anthropic requires users to pay for third-party harnesses or agents when using Claude.
