> When you have to go in to your next standup and explain what your code does to your boss, and what you've done since the last meeting, what do you say?

I hand them a writeup of how incorporating agentic decision making into cleaning up some of our messy data saved us $XXX,XXX at a cost of $XX of tokens, with the receipts attached.

The actual cost your company pays is likely _higher_ than what Claude Code shows in /cost, not lower. Also, very few organizations are getting any discount on API rates. Maybe the US military.

What other offerings? The other providers are either similarly priced for enterprises, or nonstarters for security reasons (there's very real concern in enterprises about hosted open models being modified to covertly inject security vulnerabilities, and it's not cost effective to self-host them.)

As explained at https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-drive-stats-for-q3-..., a large proportion of Backblaze's Seagate inventory are rather old drives for a datacenter (now 5-9 years in service), so a high failure rate is expected.
