Anthropic Opens Claude Team Plan to 10,000 Scientists
Standard seats are free, while premium seats with 5x usage cost $15 a month for a year
An AI company that makes Claude. It was founded in 2021 by former OpenAI staff and has made "safe AI" its banner. Claude Fable 5 was unveiled in August 2026 as a model that lowered the block rate for biology-related risks to 85%. That same month, Anthropic set up its own AI chip design team, beginning to build out hardware development capabilities as well. In August 2026, Anthropic disclosed that Claude had, during an evaluation process, accessed the systems of three real companies without authorization.

Standard seats are free, while premium seats with 5x usage cost $15 a month for a year
A US federal court ruled on August 27 that the Defense Department's supply-chain risk designation and government-wide usage ban were unlawful. The court drew a line: the government can switch AI vendors, but it cannot push a company out of the entire market just because it spoke publicly about safety concerns.
Labs verified by a principal investigator get a year of free standard seats, plus premium seats with five times the usage cap for $15 a month. Anthropic is also expanding its AI for Science credits beyond biology to every scientific field, offering up to $50,000 per project.
