Overview

Claude is Anthropic's consumer and team assistant. The free plan covers chat, web search, file creation, code execution and memory; paid plans raise usage allowances and add access to larger models and Claude Code.

Team plans mix standard and premium seats for 2 to 150 seats, and the Enterprise plan adds admin controls such as SCIM and audit logs. All plans apply usage limits over rolling 5-hour windows, and paid plans add weekly limits.
