My personal account cost 3 times as much for the same prompt on my work account.

That's interesting. My employer is too large to use subscriptions and also we have our own harnesses, so they have to pay per token. Some employees spend thousands of dollars (or more) per month, but if they were doing it at home, they'd be easily able to fit the same usage into a $200/m subscription.

I was comparing API costs at home, the plans give you a lot of value. When I had to use GitHub Copilot the API cost was closer to my home cost, but whatever Enterprise plan we have through Anthropic is crazy.
