What is the minimum number of seats for Claude Team?

Claude Team requires a minimum of 5 seats. If your team is smaller than 5, individual Claude Pro accounts at $20 per month per person are the better fit.

Does Claude Team use my conversations to train its AI models?

No. Anthropic does not use inputs from Claude Team accounts to train its models. This is one of the key differences between Claude Team and the free Claude.ai tier.

What is a Claude Project and is it included in Team?

Claude Projects are persistent workspaces where you can store context, instructions, and uploaded files that carry across conversations. Claude Team includes shared Projects, meaning everyone on the team can access the same Project knowledge base.

Can I use Claude Team for a 100-person company?

Yes. Claude Team scales to roughly 150 seats before most organizations find it worth switching to Enterprise for the additional admin and compliance features. At 100 seats and $30 per user, the annual cost is $36,000.

Does Claude Team include access to Claude Opus?

Yes. Claude Team members can switch to Claude Opus on a per-conversation basis. Sonnet is the default model, but Opus is available when you need deeper reasoning or more complex analysis.
