Internal teams receive up to $300 per day for Claude AI tokens from Anthropic.

Apple is actively expanding the use of artificial intelligence in internal processes.

According to sources, an unusual practice is observed within the company: teams working in global procurement and business development receive a daily budget of up to $300 for using tokens of the Claude AI model from Anthropic. At the same time, insufficient use of the allocated limit may negatively affect the approval of internal requests — teams that "under-spend" the budget are more likely to face reluctance from senior management to satisfy employee requests.

This policy underscores how serious Apple is about integrating AI into workflows. For comparison, according to Anthropic's estimates, the use of Claude Code in other companies usually costs $100–200 per month.
