Check the following: ### Will this use my regular usage limits? Yes\. During the promotion, Claude Fable 5 counts toward your plan's usage limits and you can use up to 50% of your weekly usage limits on Fable 5\. You won't be charged anything extra unless and until your Fable 5 usage reaches its weekly limit and you continue using it\. After you reach your weekly Fable 5 limit, you can keep using Fable 5 with usage credits, which are billed separately, or switch to another model to stay within your existing plan usage limits\. If you have usage limits turned on and continue using Fable 5 after you hit your weekly limit, billing will automatically switch to usage credits\. ### Will I always get 50% of my weekly limit for Fable 5? No\. You can use up to 50% of your weekly limit on Fable 5, but your use of other models draws from the same usage limits and you can never use more than your weekly limit\. For example, if you've already used half of your weekly limit on other models, you have half of your overall limit left—so you can use Fable 5 up to that remaining amount, even though Fable 5's own limit is higher\. You can track both in your usage settings\. ### Can my admin disable this? In Claude on the web, Claude Desktop, and Claude Mobile, promotional access to Claude Fable 5 can't be disabled by your organization's admin, though admins can control which model is set as your default\. In Claude Code, admins can manage model availability—including Fable 5—through managed settings, so if you don't see Fable 5 in Claude Code, your admin may have restricted it\. ### I'm on a legacy seat\-based Enterprise plan\. Does my team have promotional access to Claude Fable 5? Yes, but it depends on your seat type: --- Related Articles [How large is the context window on paid Claude plans?](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/8606394-how-large-is-the-context-window-on-paid-claude-plans)[What is the Team plan?](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/9266767-what-is-the-team-plan)[Use the Claude Agent SDK with your Claude plan](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15036540-use-the-claude-agent-sdk-with-your-claude-plan)[Claude Enterprise activation promo for Claude Code and Cowork](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15282265-claude-enterprise-activation-promo-for-claude-code-and-cowork)[Why Claude switched models in your conversation with Fable 5](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15363606-why-claude-switched-models-in-your-conversation-with-fable-5)
