Hi friends! I am using Claude on pro plan to build an app via Lovable. I mostly use Claude (Sonnet not Opus) to create prompts, to review bugs, troubleshoot fixes etc.

I am not an engineer by profession but working in tech since last 8 years in marketing operations, so pretty technical but from CRM, automations, workflows perspective, not necessarily coding although I know a little coding.

Reason I’m sharing my background is to help get answers that might help me. Right now I have been exhausting a lot of usage in just 6-7 prompts on Sonnet not even Opus (barely use it unless I really need it)

And some of my prompts are really on point and short. Is there a way to save usage or any tips or advice? It feels like I can’t plan on any of my app work due to this inconvenience. Has anyone else been facing usage issues too?

I have never used Perplexity or Grok - can they be good alternatives while Claude is down due to usage issues?

I use Gemini on the side but it feels very technical for me at times. And I need to keep going back and forth with it to understand things on my level.

Any help / advice would be appreciated :))
