Anthropic Doubles Claude Usage Limits Temporarily

Anthropic on March 13 began temporarily doubling Claude usage limits during off-peak hours for Free, Pro, Max and Team subscribers through March 28, applying to web, desktop, mobile and Claude Code integrations. The company also blocked third-party tools impersonating its client as providers across the industry publish explicit daily and weekly caps to manage rising infrastructure costs. Providers are shifting toward explicit rationing and enforcement.
