Claude Code on a budget: how developers outside the US are using AI without paying $20/month If you're a developer in Europe, India, Brazil, Nigeria, or anywhere outside the US, you've probably noticed something unfair about AI pricing. $20/month for ChatGPT Plus. $20/month for Copilot. That's $60/month if you want access to the best models across different use cases. For a developer in San Francisco earning $180,000/year, that's a rounding error. For a developer in Lagos, Manila, or São Paulo, that's a significant chunk of monthly income.
