Claude plans renamed, Ultra usage limits adjusted
What happened
On October 31, 2026, Anthropic renamed the Claude Max 5x plan to Max and Max 20x to Ultra, keeping prices at $100 and $200 a month. Anthropic also changed Ultra usage limits: from now on, most existing subscribers with verified Ultra accounts lose the 5-hour limit, while the weekly limit stays the same. New accounts keep a temporary limit, which the report says is meant to prevent fraud and abuse. The change covers plan names and some accounts' usage limits; it does not change the prices or the Ultra weekly limit.
