Anthropic is restructuring its enterprise pricing by eliminating bundled token allowances in favor of a consumption-based billing model.

Volume-based discounts tied to API usage have been reduced or eliminated, marking a sharp departure from OpenAI’s more flexible discount approach.

The company is positioning itself for a potential public offering by presenting cleaner unit economics through this pricing overhaul.
