A US-based dev costs 125/hr, on the low end.

A US-based dev directing Claude Code has like 3x output.

So the biz is spending 125 + AI costs, but saving 250/hr.

An individual dev might feel like a superhuman compared to those not using Claude Code. Could even earn them a substantial promotion.

Either way, seems to net out.
