With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, Claude Max, as a new AI model based on Claude 3.7 engine, has officially landed on the Cursor platform, bringing developers an unprecedented programming experience. This model demonstrates outstanding capabilities in handling large-scale code projects, marking a new era in AI-assisted programming.
The Claude Max is equipped with the latest Claude 3.7 engine, which has achieved significant improvements in both intelligence and creativity. It can provide innovative solutions to problems that other models cannot solve, especially when dealing with complex code projects. Most notably, it breaks through the support of a super-large context of 200,000 words, allowing developers to load the entire project code at one time, and the performance of the model will also improve accordingly as the context capacity increases.
In terms of functionality, the maximum number of tool calls for Claude Max has been increased to 200 times, which allows developers to edit, analyze and optimize the entire code base at one time, no longer need to be processed in step-by-step. At the same time, its code comprehension ability has been greatly improved. It can read a large amount of code at one time and deeply understand the code structure, thereby reducing unnecessary tool calls and significantly improving work efficiency.
However, Claude Max uses a billing model that charges $0.05 per request (prompt) and $0.05 per tool call. If you use the quota for all 200 tool calls, the cost of a single operation can be as high as $10. Therefore, this model is not suitable for daily use by ordinary users, but is more suitable for professional developers who need to deal with super-large-scale complex projects.
Claude Max is mainly aimed at three categories of users: professional developers who need to deal with super-large-scale complex projects, advanced users who pursue high-precision code editing, and users who have a sufficient budget and want to experience top AI capabilities. It is worth noting that for more than 90% of daily code editing tasks, Cursor's ordinary model is enough to meet the needs. In addition, Claude Max is not included in the basic Pro package, and users need to turn on the "Billing Mode by Quantity" to use this powerful AI tool.
