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

Anthropic chose an enterprise-focused business model over a consumer one to avoid business incentives that might compromise safety, such as maximizing engagement or dealing with "slop."

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

Anthropic appears to be trying to become part of the operating layer inside banks, insurers, and finance teams.

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.
