Claude 20x is now Ultra without the 5-hour limit (support.claude.com)

Anthropic has announced the launch of its new Ultra plan for the Claude AI model, replacing the previous Max 20x plan with enhanced features for individual users. For a subscription cost of $200 per month, the Ultra plan offers users ten times the weekly usage of the Pro plan and eliminates the previous five-hour usage limit for verified accounts. This shift enables users to engage in longer, multi-step tasks while allowing Claude to operate in the background, streamlining workflows for tasks like report generation and coding. The significance of the Ultra plan lies in its potential to enhance user productivity and access to advanced AI features, particularly for developers and organizations leveraging Claude for coding purposes. With the inclusion of monthly API credits and priority access to new models and features, the Ultra plan is tailored to meet the growing demands of the AI/ML community. As users can now work at their own pace within the weekly limits, the Ultra plan represents a significant step towards making AI tools more flexible and user-friendly.
