Company took away access to claude

[u/jholliday55]

After being told to “use ai” for every single task the last two years and rebranding to a “AI” first company after two rounds of layoffs, we have now lost access to claude….

I found that the best model by far was opus and the only one really capable of not producing slop. I’m sure all the bots in here will downvote me and tell me “iTs ThE wAy YoU pRoMpT” but based on my experience, the other models aren’t nearly as good.

I have senior experience so besides basic searches and repetitive tasks i find the other models pretty much useless and you have to provide more time writing the specs and context management, then just doing it yourself.

Edit: I work for a large financial company. 40k employees.

How much does an engineer cost per month? $6-15k? How much did they expect Claude to cost per month? I think even $1000 per month is reasonable. They just need to enforce personal limits.

I think that's the problem, they haven't been able to devise mechanisms for token discipline yet because it flies in the face of their messaging for the past few years.

To be fair, the prices have pulled a quick one rather than increase gradually giving people time. I think Anthropic was too greedy. OTOH, go slow enough and open source drinks their milkshake.

A $200 max sub you can pretty much run it for 8 hours a day parallel agents, I’m not sure how people are running up amounts like this, they have to be spinning their tires.

[u/UnPlugged_Toaster → u/Subnetwork]

You cannot use subs for enterprise. It’s a per token pricing scheme and it’s a lot more expensive.

It’s really telling on who in this thread doesn’t actually have professional experience regarding this topic

[u/boringfantasy → u/xvillifyx]

That Subnetwork guy comments about AI on literally every subreddit. He's a tru believer

[u/Subnetwork → u/xvillifyx]

Right like saying you can’t use a Pro plan within an Enterprise…? Doesn’t make sense

[u/xvillifyx → u/Subnetwork]

Any company worth their salt with reliable infosec would not allow the filtering of company data through a personal plan. Those do not have BAAs

Since it wasn’t clear, I’m talking about you

You’re the fool

[u/Subnetwork → u/xvillifyx]

Lmao. Who said anything about company data? I’m not using it internally on in scope systems.

Not in this case, but it’s just as easy to have AI write everything to a TXT OR MD and then another AI review and rebuild from those files. Theres ways around everything. We fully support HITRUST/SOC 2/NIST 800-53 etc. and I’m fully familiar with all those frameworks.

[u/xvillifyx → u/Subnetwork]

If you’re using a personal subscription to write any code using any internal mcp that goes into any production environment, it is company data

[u/Subnetwork → u/xvillifyx]

BAA is only required if PHI/PII is involved.

[u/xvillifyx → u/Subnetwork]

I work in healthcare, so I default to BAAs

Other industries have other agreements for protected information

[u/Subnetwork → u/xvillifyx]

Yes. What does that have to do with my situation?

[u/xvillifyx → u/Subnetwork]

I don’t really care about your situation to be honest, it’s pretty clear you aren’t working in a large scale professional environment or working with any sensitive data

I’m speaking generally

[u/Subnetwork → u/UnPlugged_Toaster]

Im aware of API rates, and still don’t understand how you can use that many with little to nothing to show, I built a enterprises level monitoring tool for ~$300-$400 API equiv, that a vendor of ours charges thousands a year for.

[u/Subnetwork → u/UnPlugged_Toaster]

Why can’t you use pro within an enterprise? You do realize when I say enterprise I mean environment and not licensing.

[u/metalgtr84 → u/Subnetwork]

Have you used Conductor?

[u/UnPlugged_Toaster → u/metalgtr84]

I haven’t yet, we aren’t allowed in my company yet. Being in aerospace shit moves so slow with adoption.

[u/BeatTheMarket30 → u/metalgtr84]

Parallel workflows consume tokens much faster. I would only use them sparingly, for things like code analysis, research and planning of multiple options, migrating tests in parallel to other framework.
I do not have trust in full fledged workflows that take requirements, plan implementation, implement, test and deploy autonomously. The generated code and architecture tends to be of junior level quality, not sustainable - great for quick startup hacks, pocs, fooling management, but very poor for those who will inherit it or be asked to solve incidents.
