You know, I wouldn't mind if they just applied the API pricing after Claude Code ran through the plan limits.

It would definitely get me to use it more.

But the Claude Pro plan is almost certainly priced under the assumption that some users will use it below the usage limit.

If everyone used the plan to the limit, the plan would cost the same as the API with usage equal to the limit.

Claude Code and Claude.ai are separate products.
