Anthropic has removed Claude Code from its Pro plan, shifting the feature to higher tiers. The change trims the Pro offering to $17 a month with an annual discount, while Code‑enabled users now face a $200 upfront fee.

The move follows user feedback that Pro subscribers wanted more coding power without a hefty price hike. By reallocating Code to Max and Team plans, Anthropic aims to balance revenue and feature demand.

Developers relying on in‑app code execution will need to upgrade to access the sandboxed Python environment, which previously lived in Pro. The shift underscores the company’s focus on tailoring tools to distinct user segments.

Overall, Anthropic’s adjustment signals a tightening of its product ladder, prioritizing high‑value features for paid tiers while keeping basic chat functionality in the free and Pro levels.
