Do Claude for Work (Team and Enterprise) plans have any usage limits?
Yes. Team and Enterprise plans offer more usage per user than the Pro plan so every team member can get what they need from Claude.
Practically, what do these limits mean?
The number of messages you can send per session will vary based on the length of your messages, including the size of files you attach, the length of current conversation, and the model or feature you use. Your session-based usage limit will reset every five hours.
If your conversations are relatively short and use a less compute-intensive model, you can expect the following depending on message length, conversation length, and Claude's current capacity.
Plan and seat type | Team plan standard seats | Team plan premium seats |
Usage limit | More usage per user than the Pro plan | 225 messages every five hours |
Claude Code weekly hours | No Claude Code access | 50-95 hours of Sonnet 4 usage and 3-7 hours of Opus 4 or 4.1 usage |
If you’re on an Enterprise plan and looking for more specific information about usage limits, please reach out to your Account Manager or our Sales team.
To manage capacity and ensure fair access to all users, we may limit your usage in other ways, such as weekly and monthly caps or model and feature usage, at our discretion. Refer to Usage Limit Best Practices for more information about optimizing your usage limits.
Do usage limits apply across the team or to individual members?
Usage limits on Team and Enterprise plans are per-member, rather than applied to the team as a whole.
