I keep seeing everyone saying Claude has super low limits. and yeah sometimes it’s a bit crazy I won’t lie
but also it’s in the way you are using Claude.
kinda like surviving a week on the sea with nothing else than two glasses of water and 3 burgers
if you just eat all of it the first 12 hours you’re not going to make it
same thing with Claude.
so here’s 5 ways to get more out of claude
1 mega prompts
if you keep asking Claude ”can you do this” then “can you do that” and etc etc it has to respond to each one.
but if you ask it can you do 1, 2, 3 it’ll be easier for Claude and itll give you more compact answers.
2 oga booga language
”why say many words when few words do trick?”
if you’re doing something that doesn’t require complex wording, just have Claude talk to you like a cave man?
why have Claude yap a bunch when it could’ve just said “done”?
3 turn off features
if you use extended thinking opus 4.7 on asking what time it is, you’re going to run out of tokens quick
so turn off what you dont need and turn it on when you do
4 generally keep it short
claude is not your buddy, you dont need to say thanks or “YES! It worked!” Small stuff like that adds up
i get it, its your usage do whatever you want with it. But if youre trying to save usage, dont talk with Claude for a long time
5 be specific
don’t say “Claude help me make the design better”
how? Where? what is better?
if you don’t tell claude all of these things, then it has to use tokens to figure it out
so help him
hopefully this helped and you get more usage out of claude because it is genuinely one of the most powerful tools of our time
i I have a shit load of other tips but if I’m honest I dont wanna type em all out, so if you want more let me know maybe I’ll make a follow up in the comments or something
peace
