Our verdict
Choose Claude Max 5x. At $100 it gives you Opus 5.5 and Fable, while SuperGrok Plus gives you more of the slow Grok 4.7.
Grok Bot and the image and video tools might matter to existing Grok users. They don't change which agent is better.
$100 gives Opus 5.5 five times the Pro allowance. Opus 5.5 is light enough on the limit to keep several agents running through the day. Fable is included for the hardest planning, but Opus 5.5 now covers most of it. Move here when the Pro limit stops you.
Pros
Five times the Pro allowance
Room for several Opus 5.5 agents
Sonnet 5.5 for smaller things and simple tasks
Fable for the hardest planning
Cons
Pro covers most single-agent days for $80 less
Best for People who keep hitting the Claude Pro limit. Start on Pro first.
How far it goes: at least 15 times a week, and more than 100 for the cheapest model
Our whole real-world issues and spec planning pass runs at least 15 times a week, and more than 100 for the cheapest model on this plan, depending on which model you run.
That works out at about under 23c to $1.84 of the subscription per run, at the list price.
Measured on this plan, at <1% to 8%/1w of its allowance per run. A share belongs to the plan it was measured on, so we never subtract one plan's from another's.
$100 buys generous Grok limits, 1080p video and priority access. We rarely use Grok enough to need those limits. The coding model is still Grok 4.7. It is too slow for routine work and not capable enough for hard work. We do not recommend this plan.
Pros
Generous limits
1080p video
Priority access
Cons
Little reason to use enough Grok to need the limits
The same Grok 4.7 coding model
Best for Nobody.

Measured on this plan, at 15%/1w of its allowance per run. A share belongs to the plan it was measured on, so we never subtract one plan's from another's.
