Do we have similar numbers for Claude code? Wonder how much it costs them?

Internally, we measured a regular developer consuming about $40/workday of compute on the $200/mo plan thresholds.
Anthropic doesn't break out per-product numbers but they're at $19B annualized, Claude Code being a big chunk. The thing is text/code inference is just way cheaper. A Claude Code session runs maybe $0.01-0.05 in compute. A Sora clip is $1.30. Not even the same conversation.
