How much you pay for claude code?
by•
I pay $20/m subscription, but nowadays hitting the limit and need to wait or spend an extra $ for tokens. I wonder whether it is worth getting $100/m subscription. How's the experience for those who have $100/m? Is it too much? Do you hit the limit? Or $20/m is fine for you?
Thanks,

just use the API directly and skip the subscription. i run claude code with my own API key and spend like $30-40/mo on pretty heavy usage with zero limits. the subscription is basically a convenience tax for people who dont wanna deal with API keys
I hit the limit of the $100/m but I use Cowork to help me manage my company and tech stack.
That $80 jump is basically a "sanity tax" to avoid hitting those soul-crushing rate limit walls every day. It’s a steep price, but never having to wait for your tools to "recharge" is the ultimate workflow flex. Token traffic jams are the absolute worst!
