How can people afford to use Claude Code like this‽ Is everyone just playing with it on their employer's dime or what?

How can people afford to use Claude Code like this‽ Is everyone just playing with it on their employer's dime or what?
- electrovir 6mo agoVC funding + spending more money on Claude instead of hiring more engineers
- tordrt 6mo ago200 dollars a month goes a long way with claude code
- michaelbuckbee 6mo agoI build my own products and services and the effective ROI for paying for a more or less unlimited max Claude Code plan is fairly ridiculously positive.
- Bombthecat 6mo agoLike you make money with them?
- techgnosis 6mo agoThis uses the CLIs so its using subscription pricing, not token pricing
- myleshenderson 6mo agoI have two claude code subscriptions: a team plan through my employer and I'm paying for the $200/month plan outside of that. Trading $200/month of my money for the ability to build all of the things I've been thinking about for years is a great trade for me. I've built more things for fun/potential profit in the last year than I did in the previous decade combined. And of course, one of the things I've built is a version of what OP made that works exactly how I want it to work. :)
- ksidjwicjwif 6mo agoIt’s so funny to me that every AI user feels the need to add this entire disclaimer about how it’s actually helping them build the Starship Enterprise from scratch or whatever every time someone even hints at it maybe being a little bit of a waste of money.
