We’ve agreed to a partnership with SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity. This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.
Below, we describe these changes and the progress we’re making on compute.
Higher usage limits
The following three changes—all effective today—are aimed at improving the experience of using Claude for our most dedicated customers.
First, we’re doubling Claude Code’s five-hour rate limits for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise plans.
Second, we’re removing the peak hours limit reduction on Claude Code for Pro and Max accounts.
Third, we’re raising our API rate limits considerably for Claude Opus models, as shown in the table below:
New compute partnership with SpaceX
We’ve signed an agreement with SpaceX to use all of the compute capacity at their Colossus 1 data center. This gives us access to more than 300 megawatts of new capacity (over 220,000 NVIDIA GPUs) within the month. This additional capacity will directly improve capacity for Claude Pro and Claude Max subscribers.
This joins our other significant compute announcements:
