I'm surprised, isn't it forbidden to use the Max plan as part of a company? Just curious, as I thought it was forbidden by the ToS but I'm not sure if I have a good understanding of it

Claude Code has a Teams plan which includes Max tiers. Why would it be forbidden?
There is nothing in the TOS last time I checked forbidding it's use with Claude code. It's only forbidden to utilize it in the running of the business.
So getting Claude code subscriptions for developers should be permissable and not be against anything... However, if you created a rest endpoint to eg run a preconfigured prompt as part of your platform, that'd be against it
But I'm neither a lawyer nor work for anthropic
Ah, that makes sense. I hope they mean that then. We are just devs using it to write code; not selling it on.
Surely that can't be true? The expectation would be that people pay $200 a month for building open source and personal hobby software with Claude?
Yeah, that would end that really quickly. I use Pro for personal stuff. If $200 is not allowed for companies I don't think anyone would use it, at all.
Most companies forbid it though, since you're not covered by any legal protection - for example, Anthropic can use your data or code to train new models and more.
This maybe was the case year+ ago but this is no longer the case, used to be most; now it is some/few
If they believe a sufficient number is locked in then they may consider doing this later.
If that were true, then everyone I know is violating that tos
