The killer feature of Claude Code is that you can just pay for Max and not worry about API billing. It lets me use it pretty much all the time without stressing over every penny or checking the billing page. Until they do that - I'm sticking with Claude.

How does that compare to using aider with Claude models?

Using Claude models in aider burns tokens you need to top up. With Claude Max subscription you can pay a 100 or 200 USD per month plan and use their internal tool claude code without the need to buy additional pay as you go tokens. You get a "flatrate", the higher plan gives you more usage with less rate limiting.
