#22At $200/month the comparable should be Opus 4 not Sonnet 4.

#23This has to be a monstrous money loser. If they can maintain this pricing level, and if Qwen3‑Coder is as good as people say then they will have an enormous hit on their hands. A massive money losing hit, but a hit. Very interesting! PS: Did they reduce the context window, it looks like it.
They are a hardware company. They have a custom chip they are running it on.
The $200/month is their "poor person" product for people who can't shell out $500k on one of their rigs.

It's their own hardware : https://www.cerebras.ai/blog/cerebras-cs3

#25Earlier quoted context omitted.
1,000 messages per day should be plenty as a daily development driver. I use claude code sonnet 4 exclusively and I do not send more than 1,000 messages per day. However, that is my current understanding. I am certainly not pressing enter 1,000 times! Maybe there are more messages being sent under the hood that I do not realize?
The issue is not about whether the limit is too high or too low. What turned me back was that they claimed "no weekly limits" as a selling feature, without mentioning that they change it to a "daily limits". I understand it's a sale tactics. But it seems not forthcoming, and it's hard for me to trust the rest of the claims.
I don't see what's hard to understand about this.. other providers have weekly limits and daily limits. If you max out your daily every day you might still hit your weekly after 3-4 days of usage, meaning you cannot send more for the rest of the week. This is saying that no such weekly limit exists on top of the daily. E.g. see https://techcrunch.com/2025/07/28/anthropic-unveils-new-rate...

It will just be replaced by more vibe code in the future. Code is like toilet paper now.
Re: Cerebras Code
#27I'm so excited to see a real competitor to Claude Code! Gemini CLI, while decent, does not have a $200/month pricing model and they charge per API access - Codex is the same. I'm trying to get into the https://cloud.cerebras.ai/ to try the $50/month plan but I can't even get in.
Unless I'm misunderstanding something. Cerebras Code is not equivalent to Claude Code or Gemini CLI. It's a strange name for a subscription to access an API endpoint.
You take your Cerebras Code endpoint and configure XYZ CLI tool or IDE plugin to point at it.

#28My understanding is that the coding agents people use can be modified to plug into any LLM provider's API? The difference here seems to be that Cerebras does not appear to have Qwen3-Coder through their API! So now there is a crazy fast (and apparently good too?) model that they only provide if you pay the crazy monthly sub?
You can still get it pay-as-you-go on OpenRouter, afaict, and the billing section of the Cerebras Cloud account I just created has a section for Qwen3-Coder-480B as well.
Yeah just checked apparently it is available as a preview (not on main models/pricing page).

define 'crazy'. it's two kilotokens per second. that's fast .
It's more than 10x faster than the fastest alternative. And roughly 50x the average alternative.
Certainly, somewhere between fast and crazy.
Re: Cerebras Code
#30Super curious to see some comparisons to claude code. Especially Opus, since they're primarily comparing it to Sonnet in that graph.
