Microsoft Meta Cut Claude Usage
NIK claims Microsoft cut Claude spend over 33% and per-employee token budget from $100k to $10k, while Meta halved active users.
Key points
- Microsoft cut internal Claude spend by more than 33%, reduced the per-employee token budget from $100k/month to $10k/month, and forced Copilot to auto-route to cheaper models.
- META used Claude code to build Muse, cut active users from 60,000 to 30,000 after launch, and replaced it with Muse Code.
- Palantir and Nvidia are also scaling back Claude over soaring prices and data privacy fears.

Reaction on X: Replies largely treat the cuts as unsurprising, arguing Anthropic's API pricing was unsustainable for companies that scrutinize laptop costs; some question how Copilot could be the replacement, and a few doubt the $100k per-employee monthly token figure, with one calling the implied $1.2M per employee per year claim stupidly high.
