| 2026-10-22 | platform.claude.com/docs/en/about-claude/pricing#claude-mana | the Claude Platform pricing page was read on 2026-10-22 and is a per-million-token model ladder with prompt-caching rates: 'Claude Opus 5.5 $4 / MTok, $5 / MTok, $8 / MTok' and 'Claude Sonnet 5.5 $2 / MTok', with 'Arrears only (postpaid); no prepaid credits'. It prices tokens, not machines |

Anthropic AI Compute

| Interface | rest inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed |
| Tooling | not stated |
| Composes with | The credit is API spend, not compute, so it composes with nothing in the compute class. It also cannot be topped up in place: the program takes a new application rather than an increase, and the credits are for API use only, not the web app. |
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
| Notes | Inference rather than compute, recorded here because it is the same door: USD 20,000 with a named institution attached. The adjacent Anthropic route for an individual is a Claude team plan for scientists, which the vendor's own announcement restricts to 'a principal investigator ... or nonprofit research institution', so both Anthropic lanes close on the same condition. The distinction to keep on promotion: the API is open to anyone with a Console account, so the product is reachable and only the grant is gated. |

'Download files that were created by skills or the code execution tool. **Files you upload cannot be downloaded.**' This is the brief's rule 2 in its purest form: huge quota, real write path, no read path for your own bytes. Uploading is therefore write-only data loss. (Anthropic separately requires phone verification for new Console accounts.) |
