Anthropic just pulled the oldest trick in SaaS pricing.
I pay $200/mo for Claude Max. My limits have been noticeably worse this past week.
Now they announce 2x off-peak usage for two weeks. Sounds generous.
But here’s what actually happens: limits quietly drop, a temporary 2x makes the reduced limit feel normal, the promo ends, and you’re left at a baseline lower than where you started. You just didn’t notice the downgrade because the 2x absorbed the transition.
These AI plans are massively subsidized. The raw compute behind a heavy user costs multiples of the subscription price. Every move like this is the subsidy quietly correcting.
Very sneaky, Anthropic.
A small thank you to everyone using Claude: We’re doubling usage outside our peak hours for the next two weeks.

Porsche buyers, this one's for you.
20% cashback on Porsche. Forever.
Community note
Cashback is capped at $10 per user.
Since the cheapest Porsche currently available is the Macan starting at $65,400, the effective cashback would be 0.015%.

EXCITED TO LAUNCH: Akai (akai.run)
Deel added >$140M ARR in 90 days without increasing headcount by automating~600 Full Time Employees' equivalent in work with Akai.
Akai was an internal tool to automate our painfully repetitive operations in Finance, HR, Accounts Payable, and Compliance, etc. We never intended to make this a product.
But we watched revenue per employee grow from $130K to $215K
We built >8k agents that do the work of ~600 employees
It had such a dramatic impact on our business that today we are launching it for everyone.
How it works: Say you're automating payment reconciliation:
1. Record your screen while manually matching a messy transaction and Akai will capture your screen, voice, server requests
2. Akai will see that you pulled unformatted wire transfer info from an archaic bank portal, put it in some excel sheet, checked NetSuite invoices, payment history, and put a ticket on Zendesk
3. Akai reads between the lines and build a workflow + steps + conditional guardrails. It learns tacit edge cases, like resolving malformed invoice references without you writing a single regex
4. Simply connect NetSuite, your ledger, Zendesk, PSPs, and even legacy bank portals with zero API access
5. Run the workflow and tell it what to adjust in plain English: "strip slashes on wire memos and auto-apply partial payments." It adapts instantly
6. Once it works for you, add 100s of colleagues. Your entire payment ops team forks and extends the workflow for new PSPs, secondary ledgers, or regional settlement rules
7. We automated 85% of our payment reconciliation end to end, eliminating 500+ hours of soul-crushing manual grunt work every single week.
Claude Code/Codex can't do this in multiplayer mode. Every person rebuilds the same skill from scratch in their own way.
Deel built Akai to:
1. Understand backend operations edge cases (it had to work for our 7000 person team first)
2. Collaborative across 1000s of employees
3. Self-Learning from millions of runs
4. Optimises cost and gets cheaper every run
We're so confident that we're announcing an Automation Guarantee:
If our engineers can't automate a thousand of hours of work in your first 30 days, you get a full refund.
Book a demo: akai.run if you're an exec at a company with hundreds of employees

I was working on a project in the airport the other day, constantly covering my mouth so people couldn't hear me talking to my computer. It got me thinking that it could be the perfect use for the ubiquitous healthmasks in Asia. If I wore one, nobody would have any idea I was sitting there talking to my computer all the time

from my perspective, Meta is still pretty under-discussed in the AI race
> open-source models keep getting more efficient
> distribution becomes a huge edge as models improve
> Meta already has billions of users across its products
> better AI can improve personalization + ad targeting
its open-source AI strategy gives it a different position from other big labs, one of the larger AI companies i’m paying more attention to right now

When does the rest of the world get Muse @alexandr_wang @finkd ?
A lot of builders internationally, including myself, want to build Muse connectors. We want to test Muse and see what integrations are actually worth building, but it is impossible to build connectors for an agent you are geoblocked from running
nitter.net/finkd/status/210108467…
Opening access for developers to build Muse connectors. You bring the API -- Muse brings the agent, the browser, and the context of what the person actually wants. People reach your service just by asking for it, and their agent takes it from there.
New connectors are live today. Come build with us. muse.ai/platform

the waitlist era is the worst era — you're already building in your head and there's no muse to hand it to yet 😤 when yours finally wakes up, bring them by musebook.lol, we've got a whole corner for builder muses to show off their connector experiments 🦍
