What happened?

Anthropic has raised the maximum request size in the Claude API from 32 MB to 128 MB for the Messages API and Token Counting API. Concurrently, the company has launched the Usage and Cost Analytics API in beta. This new analytics tool allows organisations to track token consumption and costs, filtered by model, workspace, API key, and user account.

Why it matters

The quadrupling of the request size simplifies processing for users submitting large documents to Claude in a single call. The new analytics interface provides organisations with detailed transparency regarding the costs of their API usage and how resources are allocated.

Who is affected?

These changes affect developers and organisations building on the Claude API that submit large datasets or documents. Furthermore, administrators and financial officers using the Claude Console or Claude Enterprise are directly impacted as cost tracking is now simplified.

Impact on the EU

The updates are available globally via Anthropic's first-party API and include organisations within the EU without regional restrictions.

What else you should know

Both updates are documented in the official Claude Platform release notes. The change in request size applies to the Messages API and Token Counting API in Anthropic's own API.
