The company also plans pooled budgets and says the data will not be used by default to train its models, TechCrunch reports.
Anthropic launched on Wednesday a suite of tools enabling companies to measure the cost and results of using Claude Code, its artificial intelligence-based programming tool. Managers will be able to examine the work produced by a team over a given period, token spending and the stages at which workflows encountered difficulties, according to TechCrunch.
The reports will also offer recommendations for improving results. Anthropic said these data would not be used by default to train its models and was preparing pooled budgets to help teams control their token spending.
Financial results disclosed to investors this week show that Anthropic recorded an operating profit in the second quarter and net revenue retention of 900%. This means that spending by the same customers increased ninefold between the third quarter of 2025 and the third quarter of 2026, according to TechCrunch.
A Jellyfish study of 276,000 users indicates that Claude Code and other tools based on Anthropic’s models account for nearly a third of code changes submitted for review. Spending on these tools has increased tenfold since the start of the year and now amounts to about 2% of total engineering costs, TechCrunch reports.
