Claude Code vs Qwen Code: Features, Pricing and User Reviews 2026

Claude Code is included as part of Anthropic's Claude plans rather than sold separately.

• Free ($0/month): Lets you chat with Claude but does not include Claude Code access.

• Pro ($17 to $20/month): Adds Claude Code along with Claude Cowork, Claude Design, more usage, and access to more models.

• Max (from $100/month): Everything in Pro with 5x or 20x more usage, higher output limits, and priority access.

• Team ($20 to $125 per seat/month): Built for teams of 2 to 150, with Standard and Premium seats, admin controls, and single sign-on.

• Enterprise (Custom pricing): Adds spend limits, audit logs, compliance tools, and usage billed at API rates.

Developers can also use Claude models through the API, priced per million tokens depending on the model chosen.

Qwen Code offers separate pricing for individuals and teams, all based on monthly credits rather than a free plan.

• Lite ($6/month): 2,500 credits every 7 days and the ability to run 1 to 2 agents at once.

• Standard ($18/month): 10,000 credits every 7 days, 4 times the credits of Lite, and 3 to 4 agents running together.

• Pro ($68/month): 40,000 credits every 7 days, 16 times the credits of Lite, and 6 to 8 agents at once.

Yearly billing lowers the cost on all three plans. For teams, seat based plans start at $20 per seat a month for Standard, $75 for Pro, and $200 for Max, each adding more monthly credits and access to models like GLM-5, MiniMax-M2.5, and DeepSeek-V3.2.
