Even with the most expensive subscription, that's about 750 devs being serviced by that amount of API money. I think 1 Rohan isn't going to get you much.

Subscriptions are moving to usage based. Ain't gonna be $200/month/Dev soon. Gonna be $3-4k/month/Dev.

And once the AI actually have to earn money instead of burning billions each year, it's gonna become a lot more expensive still and then more and more each year. Line must go up after all.
