Anthropic Restructures Team Plan Pricing with New Standard and Premium Seat Options
What happened

Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change, feature change, feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 12, 2026) lists Pro at $17, Enterprise (self-serve) at $20, Team (Standard seat) at $20, Max 5x at $100 and Team (Premium seat) at $100.
Anthropic's previous recorded change was "Anthropic API Introduces Code Execution Tool with 50 Free Hours Daily, Enhancing Service Offerings and Flexibility for Users" (Q2 2025). Before that Pulse recorded "Anthropic Introduces Max Plan at $100+/Month, Offering 5x-20x More Usage Than Pro Plan" (Q2 2025). Anthropic has been tracked since 2024-11-17.
