Claude Pro / Max (Claude Code included)
confidence: high
Verdict
Anthropic Claude Pro is $20/mo ($17/mo-equivalent, $200 billed yearly upfront) and Max 5x/20x are $100/$200 per month (monthly-only), each bundling Claude Code into one shared 5-hour-session + weekly usage pool; Sonnet 5 stays at $2/$10 per MTok after the planned Sept 1, 2026 increase was cancelled.
The terms
- $20.00/month
- Pro ($20/mo, or $17/mo-equivalent via $200/yr prepaid) includes Claude Code with at least 5x Free usage per rolling 5-hour session plus weekly caps; Max 5x ($100/mo) and Max 20x ($200/mo, monthly-only billing) give 5x/20x Pro capacity per session; all usage across Claude web/desktop/mobile apps and Claude Code terminal+IDE draws from one shared pool, with no fixed message count.
