Anthropic Will Start Applying Weekly Tariff Limits To Users Claude Pro And Max

JAKARTA - AI company Anthropic announced that it will start applying weekly rate limits for service for Claude Pro and Claude Max by the end of August 2025.

The company says the new policy is aimed at regulating use more fairly and maintaining service quality for all users.

"The Code is experiencing unprecedented demand, especially from Max package users," Anthropic wrote on X. "We support this growth, but for now, we need to make some adjustments."

Anthropic revealed that a small number of users, including running the Claude Code on a 24-hour basis and distributing or selling access to practical accounts that violate usage provisions.

One case noted the use of the model in tens of thousands of just one subscription account worth 200 US dollars (Rp3.28 million).

As a solution, Anthropic will introduce a weekly limit system and allow Max package users to purchase additional usage quotas at standard API rates.

However, the company insists, this change will only have an impact on less than 5% of customers, based on current use patterns. This means that the majority of users are not expected to feel the impact.

"We estimate this limit will apply to less than 5% of customers based on current use," he added.
