Why this site never publishes a subscription price

Why this page exists at all

It would be easy to assume a missing subscription price on a cost-focused site is an oversight — it isn't, and this page states the actual policy plainly rather than leaving readers to guess why the number isn't there. No Claude Pro, Max, or Team price appears anywhere on this site, on this page or any calculator, and that omission is deliberate.

The reasoning, stated directly

There's no single source for consumer plan pricing that this site is willing to stand behind as current and citable, and even a source that existed wouldn't solve the underlying problem: the actual number differs by where you're billed from, what currency you're billed in, and which billing cadence you're on, so there was never going to be one correct figure to publish in the first place — only a set of figures this site would have to keep synchronised across every region and plan, indefinitely, with no reliable way to verify any of them stayed right. A single confidently-published number would have been wrong for some real share of readers from the day it shipped, silently, with nothing on the page to warn them.

What the site does instead

Every calculator that needs to compare a subscription against metered API pricing asks for your actual cost, as a direct input, rather than guessing at one — see the subscription vs API cost calculator for exactly how that works in practice. This makes the comparison correct for every reader, every currency, and every future price change, since it never depended on a hardcoded figure to begin with.
