✦AI Summary
Anthropic is introducing usage-based billing for its new Claude Fable 5 model, requiring subscribers to pay extra fees based on token consumption. This shift marks a departure from traditional flat-rate monthly subscriptions toward a model common in developer APIs.
Starting on July 12 at 11:59PM PT, subscribers to Anthropic’s $20, $100, and $200-a-month plans will need to pay additional usage-based fees to access Claude Fable 5, the consumer version of the company’s highly capable Mythos 5 AI model. This appears to be the first time a frontier AI lab has gated a consumer AI model behind usage-based billing.
