alt Hacker NewsI'm surprised, isn't it forbidden to use the Max plan as part of a company? Just curious, as I thought it was forbidden by the ToS but I'm not sure if I have a good understanding of it

There is nothing in the TOS last time I checked forbidding it's use with Claude code. It's only forbidden to utilize it in the running of the business.
So getting Claude code subscriptions for developers should be permissable and not be against anything... However, if you created a rest endpoint to eg run a preconfigured prompt as part of your platform, that'd be against it
But I'm neither a lawyer nor work for anthropic
If they believe a sufficient number is locked in then they may consider doing this later.
If that were true, then everyone I know is violating that tos
Surely that can't be true? The expectation would be that people pay $200 a month for building open source and personal hobby software with Claude?
