September 2026

Claude session limits doubled (May 2026)

What changed: Anthropic raised Pro/Max session limits in May 2026 and removed peak-hour throttling.
Why you care: Your $20 Pro plan goes further than ever — IF you don't leak tokens.
Do this: One task = one chat; clear between tasks.

Sonnet intro pricing ended Aug 31, 2026

What changed: Sonnet's discounted intro API pricing ($2/$10 per MTok) ran out at the end of August.
Why you care: If you use the API for client work, the same job bills more now than it did in July.
Do this: Open your API usage for September and check which model your default points at.

The 6 leaks

What changed: Most beginners burn their plan on: vague prompts, unscoped investigation, kitchen-sink sessions, repeated corrections, raw log dumps, unused integrations.
Why you care: Fixing these makes a basic plan feel 20x bigger.
Do this: The full checklist ships inside the free Vol. VII →
