I have no doubt some people can do that with a large project, a /goal loop, and (probably) poorly defined requirements.
My experience (using Claude models, but not Claude Code) is about $20-40/day worth of API costs in a collaborative mode, picking the right model for the task. Plan, implement, review & test features or bugs.
I get where I’m going faster, but not 10x faster nor 100x the cost. :-P
I’ve seen a datapoint that an 8 hour business day with Claude is about 1 kUSD, so 20 business day month is some 20 kUSD. More with agentic AI.
