Anthropic said Wednesday it has struck a deal to gain access to compute capacity from Elon Musk's SpaceX, a move that could help the company deal with surging demand. Why it matters: Anthropic has been struggling to meet the needs of developers which has led to aggressive rate caps and a shift to usage-based pricing.

Anthropic looks to expand its compute capacity with a SpaceX partnership that will lift rate limits on Claude Code.
