Leaving Anthropic after 2 months. Great product, but pricing and SLA were the deal breakers
Leaving Anthropic after 2 months. Great product, but pricing and SLA were the deal breakers
I want to start by giving credit where it’s due.
Over the past two months, I’ve been genuinely impressed with Anthropic’s product. The way Opus performs is on another level. It actually made me rethink my AI budget. I went from spending around $20 on other models to $100 on theirs, and honestly, I didn’t regret it.
But every good story has an ending.
This month, I’m starting the migration. I’ll be building my own agents inside Google’s ecosystem, looking for more predictable costs and a structure that fits better with my workflow, including 5TB of cloud storage.
So, thank you for the experience. It really was great while it lasted.
But I can’t justify staying with a provider that isn’t transparent about pricing and seems to ignore basic SLA expectations.
Time to move on.
