Anthropic will block third-party tools like OpenClaw from Claude subscriptions starting April 4, pushing users to pay-per-use API billing instead. Heavy OpenClaw users were running $1,000-5,000 in daily compute costs on $200/month plans. The move highlights growing tension between flat subscription pricing and compute-intensive AI agent workloads. #AI #CloudComputing #OpenSource
