Token math, step by step
The assumption: one request is 20,000 input tokens (18,000 of them cache reads) plus 1,500 output = 21,500 tokens, and a month of full use is 4 usable 5-hour windows a day × 30 days = 120 windows.
This estimate does not follow from the caps alone (credit pool, dollar pool or a measured conversion). The dataset’s method, verbatim:
“STANDARD: 1 request/prompt/message = 1 agentic model call of 20,000 input tokens (18,000 cache-read + 2,000 uncached) + 1,500 output = 21,500 tokens. Window plans: 4 usable 5h windows/day x 30 days = 120 windows/month, then capped by weekly cap x 30/7 and by any monthly cap (whichever binds first). Dollar-pool plans: pool / blended reference rate for the same token mix at Claude Sonnet 5.5 list ($2 in / $0.20 cache-read / $10 out per Mtok) = $1.0512/Mtok. Anthropic publishes no token/prompt numbers; estimate converts SECONDARY measurements (finopsllm.com, Sept 2026, Claude Code on Opus 5, 96% cache reads) into the standard mix by API-dollar equivalence: measured mix = $0.843/Mtok at Opus 5 list vs standard mix $2.628/Mtok, factor 0.321.”
- Tokens a month at full use: 307,773,451.
- USD price ÷ (tokens ÷ 1,000,000) = $20 ÷ 307.77 = $0.065 per 1M.
- The same mix through the Claude Sonnet 5.5 API costs $1.05 per 1M, so at full use this plan is 16× cheaper.
“At full use” means using every window to the cap. Real use is usually well below it.
