It would signal quite a fundamental pivot if their "Pro" plan excludes coding but supports personal productivity (Cowork). Quite surprising given most people attribute Anthropic's success to their elevation of coding above everything else. To have casual users locked out of that would be a major hit you would think. Makes me curious about the internal thinking. One theory being they are in a capacity crisis and knock…

I just switched from the $10 Copilot subscription to a $20 Claude subscription to get general AI and coding in one bill. I guess I'll try out GPT Codex.

Anthropic’s “Head of Growth” claims this is a “test”: https://x.com/TheAmolAvasare/status/2046724659039932830 This does not explain the changes to documentation.

Wait what, so they're testing giving new users misleading information about included services in each tier as an upsell tactic?

No, they're testing removing it from the Pro tier for new subscribers.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Ed’s replies show an archived Code support page that was changed today to remove mentions of Pro. They seem to be making these changes right now.

> making these changes right now Would it really be that hard for them to just make all of the changes and then do a redeploy rather than doing them incrementally? It's not like they're just editing the raw HTML sitting on the server manually, right? Actually, don't answer that, I'm not sure I even want to know the answer.

“Claude, remove the reference to Code in the pro plan everywhere on our website.” “Done” “You forgot this page.” “Done” “You also forgot this one”

No I think the test is that some new sign ups won't get Claude code in that tier if they pick it and they're seeing if users will still pay for it without it?

How can you run the A/B test with mismatched documentation?
