Anthropic adjusts default effort settings across customer segments as a limited form of customization, while allowing users to change them.

“It's a Claude code setting. They default it to medium. Yeah. They just- Yeah. You can turn it on, right? [laughs] And, and this, and this thing varies. This thing does...”

“Like, this is an, this is a perfect example of a parameter that we use to kind of like personalize.”

“I, I would say that's maybe a little too aggressive of a term, but we kind of like customize maybe for different sub-segments.”

“So like, uh, the default setting will adjust for, uh, whether you're a free customer, a prosumer customer, Claude code versus, uh, co-work versus enterprise, like things like that, versus API and stuff like that.”

“Um, knowing that you can obviously always adjust it, but those are kind of like light ways where we try to give that.”
