Anthropic has renamed its two higher-priced Claude plans without changing their listed monthly prices. Verified Ultra subscribers no longer face a five-hour usage reset, while weekly limits remain; newer accounts retain a temporary cutoff until verification.

Max 5x is now called Max, and Max 20x is now Ultra; the plans remain listed at $100 and $200 per month, respectively.
Verified Ultra accounts no longer have a five-hour usage cutoff, but the weekly usage limit remains. Newer accounts keep a temporary cutoff until Anthropic verifies them.
The reports say existing subscribers do not need to take action; one says the change began for most existing subscribers on Friday.
