If you're maxing out the plans across the platforms, that's 600 bucks -- but if you think about your usage and optimize, I'm guessing somewhere between 200-600 dollars per month.

It's pretty easy to hit a couple hundred dollars a day filling up Opus's context window with files. This is via Anthropic API and Zed.

Going full speed ahead building a Rails app from scratch it seemed like I was spending $50/hour, but it was worth it because the App was finished in a weekend instead of weeks.

I can't bear to go in circles with Sonnet when Opus can just one shot it.
