Verdict by buyer type

Individual developers paying yearly
Claude Code

Claude Pro includes Claude Code at $17 per month billed annually or $20 monthly. Augment Code lists no yearly price; its cheapest plan, Standard, is $20 per month. Neither has a free plan that includes the product.

Teams that want a fixed price per developer
Claude Code

Claude Code's Team plan is $20 per seat per month billed annually or $25 monthly, for 2 to 150 seats, with each seat's usage limits resetting every five hours plus weekly caps. Augment Code bills usage in dollars across the team: its plans include $20 or $100 of usage a month, and more is pay as you go.

Teams that would rather pay for usage than seats
Augment Code

Augment Code's Standard plan is $20 per month flat for the whole team, up to 50 seats, with $20 of usage included; more usage is charged at the model provider's list price plus a 40% service fee on LLM usage. Claude Code's Team plan charges per seat, from $20 per month billed annually.

Teams that want the whole codebase indexed
Augment Code

Augment Code's Context Engine indexes the workspace in Augment's cloud, and files can be excluded with .gitignore or .augmentignore. Claude Code keeps no code index: it searches files with pattern and regex search at run time.

Developers who want models from several AI labs
Augment Code

Augment Code offers Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, GLM and Kimi, plus its Prism routers that pick a model automatically. Claude Code runs Anthropic's Claude models only and does not support routing to other models.

Enterprises that need on-prem or VPC deployment
Augment Code

Augment Code lists on-prem deployment, VPC deployment and single-tenant instances. Claude Code's self-hosted environments, in public beta on Team and Enterprise, run cloud sessions on your infrastructure while model inference still goes to Anthropic.

Security and compliance buyers
Claude Code

Both document SOC 2 Type II and a HIPAA BAA. Claude Code also documents ISO 27001:2022, and SSO starts on its Team plan. Augment Code's pages do not document ISO 27001, and SSO is on its Enterprise plan only.
