Claude Code is a client. The model can be changed.
Same workflow. Different model.
You keep working in Claude Code, while requests go to Rate Cloud instead of Anthropic. Your projects, terminal and habits stay with you.

GLM 5.3 was tested in the Claude Code 2.1.207 environment. This is more than just a regular chat quality comparison.

What about the new Claude models?
Anthropic already has Claude Opus 5.5, Sonnet 5.5 and Fable 5.1. We do not insert these models' results into the Terminal-Bench 2.1 chart without a comparable published test on the same sample. The chart does not prove that Rate Cloud models outperform all modern Claude models.
What happens under truly high load
Example: 500 million tokens for 30 days — 400 million input and 100 million output.
Rate Cloud · GLM 5.3
4 640 ₽ / 30 days. Subscription cost does not change based on the specified amount.
Claude Sonnet 5.5 API
$1 800 · 400 × $2 + 100 × $10.
Claude Opus 5.5 API
$3 600 · 400 × $4 + 100 × $20.
Claude Fable 5.1 API
$9 000 · 400 × $10 + 100 × $50.
Fixed price for 30 daysThis example compares the cost of processing the given volume through the API, not model equivalence. Prompt caching and other Anthropic modes can lower the effective price. Sonnet/Opus rates; Fable 5.1.
What if I just buy Claude Max?
Max increases available usage. Rate Cloud solves a different problem.
Claude Pro
$20 / month · Claude Code · Claude models · rate limits.
Claude Max
$100-200 / month · more usage · Claude models · rate limits.
Rate Cloud
3 720–4 640 ₽ / 30 days · Claude Code as client · GLM / DeepSeek / Qwen · 4 slots · no total token quota.
If you specifically want Claude as a model, choose Anthropic. If you like Claude Code as a tool and need sustained coding workloads without Rate Cloud token tracking, choose a different model through us.
Use Claude Code as more than just a single agent
One Rate Cloud subscription supports up to four concurrently executing requests.
SLOT 1Primary implementation
SLOT 2Code review
SLOT 3Tests
SLOT 4Research
When a request is complete, its slot is free for the next one. 1 subscription = 4 slots · 2 subscriptions = 8 slots · 3 subscriptions = 12 slots.
Tasks you shouldn't have to stop due to a quota
Claude Code tools stay the same; what changes is the model and how you pay for its work.
Large feature
Explore the project, plan changes, write code, and verify the result.
Refactoring
Run several iterations over a large part of the repository.
Debugging
Test hypotheses sequentially until the cause is found.
Testing
Generate, run and fix tests.
Review
Reserve a separate slot for independent verification.
Long task
Work without waiting for the Rate Cloud token quota to reset.
You change the engine, not the car
Claude Code remains your agent environment. The project, terminal, instructions, and familiar workflow stay in place. Rate Cloud handles the model that processes requests.

Frequently asked questions
Client, models, limits, and provider choice.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. After registration and confirmation of your email and Telegram address, all Rate Cloud models are free for the first 3 hours with 1 parallel slot. You can test them in Claude Code before buying a subscription.
Is this real Claude Code?
Yes. You keep using Claude Code as your app and agent environment. Rate Cloud changes the model provider.
After connecting, do I still use Claude as the model?
No. Claude Code remains the client, but requests are processed by your chosen GLM, DeepSeek, or Qwen instead of the Anthropic model.
Will CLAUDE.md remain?
Yes. Connecting a different model does not delete CLAUDE.md or your project instructions.
Will MCP remain?
Yes. Your MCP configuration is not deleted when you switch providers.
Will skills and commands remain?
Yes. You are not moving to a new client, so your existing Claude Code settings stay.
Do I need to reconnect the model every time?
No. The configuration persists until you change the provider or model yourself.
Can I go back to Anthropic?
Yes. Save the original connection settings so you can switch back to the Anthropic model.
Is there a five-hour or weekly token limit on Rate Cloud?
No. During the 30 days of an active subscription, Rate Cloud does not set a total token quota and does not require waiting for a five-hour window reset.
What is limited?
One subscription lets you run up to four requests at once. The slot is freed once the request completes.
Can I work around the clock?
Rate Cloud does not restrict usage by time of day. The amount of work depends on model speed, request duration, and available parallelism.
Which model is best for Claude Code?
For complex tasks try GLM 5.3. For heavy coding and speed - DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. For frequent small tasks - GLM 5.3 Flash.
Are the models worse than Claude?
No model is equally the best at every task. Public coding agent benchmarks provide a useful reference, but quality depends on your project and specific task.
