California federal judge Alex Tse let claims over Anthropic’s Claude Max marketing proceed, keeping a proposed subscriber lawsuit alive over whether plan usage disclosures were clear enough. Tse dismissed other claims, including one under California’s unfair competition law, and allowed the plaintiffs to amend their complaint. Two Claude Max subscribers filed suit in September. They allege Anthropic marketed its $100-a-month and $200-a-month plans as offering five times and 20 times the usage of Claude Pro, respectively, but weekly caps fell short of those amounts. Anthropic said the multipliers applied to usage per five-hour session and pointed to website disclosures. Tse found the disclosures too far from the main sales page to dismiss the claims at this stage. A change to [five-hour limits for verified Ultra accounts]() left weekly usage limits in place. ## Links in this article - [five-hour limits for verified Ultra accounts](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/business/45057)
