What is the Enterprise plan? (original) (raw)
The Enterprise plan is designed for organizations that need advanced security, compliance controls, and scalable AI across their teams. It includes everything in the Team plan, plus additional security and compliance features. Enterprise plan pricing works differently than Team plans: the seat fee covers access only, and all usage is billed separately at API rates.
Enterprise plans are available two ways:
What's included in the Enterprise plan?
Enterprise includes everything in the Team plan, plus the following:
Pricing
Enterprise uses a single seat type, priced per user per month and billed annually. The seat fee gives each user access to Claude on web, desktop, and mobile, plus Claude Code and Cowork.
Usage isn't included in the seat fee. Every token your team uses—in chat, Claude Code, or Cowork—is billed at standard API rates on top of your seat cost. For full details on how usage billing works for your plan, see How am I billed for my Enterprise plan?
Price and plans are subject to change at Anthropic's discretion.
Do Enterprise plans have any usage limits?
Usage-based Enterprise plans—including the single Enterprise seat described above—have no plan or seat-level usage limits. Usage is billed based on actual consumption rather than capped at a fixed amount.
If your organization is on a seat-based plan with Standard and Premium seats, usage limits do apply. See the Standard and Premium seats section below for details, including how to enable usage credits on those plans.
How does usage apply across the team?
On usage-based Enterprise plans, there's no token allowance to divide up. Instead, every team member's usage is metered and billed to the organization at API rates. One person's heavy usage doesn't reduce what's available to anyone else, because nothing is allocated in the first place. If you need cost predictability, admins can set spend limits at the organization or user level.
Self-serve vs. sales-assisted Enterprise
Both self-serve and sales-assisted Enterprise plans include the same features and the same seat pricing. The differences are in how you purchase, pay, and manage your plan:
*ACH bank transfers are only available when creating new self-serve Enterprise organizations, not when upgrading a Team organization to Enterprise.
When to contact Sales: If your organization needs invoicing, HIPAA-readiness and a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), dedicated customer success management, or to pay with a currency other than USD, reach out to our Sales team to set up a sales-assisted Enterprise plan.
How to get the Enterprise plan
Self-serve Enterprise plans
Visit claude.ai/create/enterprise to purchase an Enterprise plan directly. You can pay with a credit card or ACH bank transfer (USD only).
About ACH bank transfers
New self-serve Enterprise organizations can choose to pay by ACH bank transfer instead of credit card. ACH is a push-based payment method, which means you initiate the transfer from your bank's interface to send funds to Anthropic's virtual bank account number (VBAN). You select your payment method when you create your organization.

Information for organizations on Chat and Chat + Claude Code seats
Some existing usage-based Enterprise organizations currently have two seat types: Chat and Chat + Claude Code. If you see these seat types in Organization settings > Members, this section applies to you.
Your current seat types and pricing will remain in place until your next contract renewal. At renewal, your plan will automatically transition to the single Enterprise seat model described above—all users will move to the all-inclusive Enterprise seat priced per user per month, which includes Claude Code access.
Information for organizations on seat-based Enterprise plans
Some Enterprise organizations are on older seat-based plans that use Standard and Premium seats with per-seat usage limits, rather than the usage-based model described above. If you see "Standard" and "Premium" seats when you navigate to Organization settings > Members, this section applies to you.
Seat-based Enterprise plans haven't changed; your seat types, usage limits, and usage credit options will remain as they are until you migrate to the current usage-based billing model. For details on how usage credits work on your plan, see Manage usage credits for Team and seat-based Enterprise plans.
If you're interested in migrating to the current usage-based model, reach out to your Anthropic Contact or our Sales team.
