I'm baffled, my $20 is enough for me to do some consulting, personal projects and side work, and still cannot outran my quotas, I'm building different kind of things: flutter apps, dotnet backend, database, front end, architecture diagrams, code exploration, tests, PowerShell scripts.

How people spend more than 200 usd monthly is beyond my understanding, are you guys so inefficient with the usage? or I am the opposite?

How?

After opus 5.5 release I find it very hard to run out on a 100 sub...

I would be worried about your methodology when the subscription party ends. Make no mistake, one day, the party is ending and the people who are dining out on approaches that burn massive tokens are in for a rude shock.

I'll bite. Wtf are you working on that takes $200 a day and you're willing to pay for?

Interesting, coming from a similar situation, I'm interested what workflow you landed on. Opus planning + available to be called for deep thinking + opus reviwer? or?

Yeah the Claude/anthropic usage is quite arbitrary, I also run through my entire 20x pro plan in 1-2 days. Codex has slightly better usage levels, but is annoying to use for many reasons. DeepSeek flash (direct or via opencode go) is the best value model I've found so far.

This is a new model.
