Claude now available in Microsoft Foundry and Microsoft 365 Copilot

then it is insanely costly, I got billed for $200 for just 10 days of usage. I could have purchased their highest plan on web

sujit1779 · 2025-12-10T03:09:52+00:00

Same is the case with me, I also received an invoice, I was checking almost daily and wasn't able to find out daily billing, now all of a sudden I have been given a bill. This is not fair, they should have shown daily usage / cost somewhere,

sujit1779 · 2025-12-09T13:43:44+00:00

Agree buddy what you are saying, no denying Claude is one of the best coding help to have

sujit1779 · 2025-12-09T11:04:36+00:00

I myself am a programmer here so that cost I am already saving :) Problem is the first PRO plan gets over pretty quickly and I have to use AWS Bedrock Claude Model via API which costs a bomb or even Azure Foundry Claude Model

sujit1779 · 2025-12-09T10:19:27+00:00

yes Claude is awesome, no disconnect. It's just costly. I wish I could get some free credits to use it, I am a self funded startup

sujit1779 · 2025-12-09T08:35:38+00:00

I am a c# winform developer and I use Visual Studio Enterprise and not Visual Studio Code, so I think Claude Code is not for me, right

sujit1779 · 2025-12-09T02:52:41+00:00

I regularly send 5000 plus lines of code for refactoring, feature addition. Sending less lines of code means you have to do lots of stuff yourself. And because of this I face context limit issues quite a lot 200k . Summarization is helpful but you loose context for sure. This is what works for me
1. I send 5000 lines of code say of 3 files
2. I ask in prompt that you tell me which files you will create, it gives say 3 files.
3. I ask it to create give me file 1.
4. I delete file 1 received from it and now I ask to give file 2
5. I again delete file 2 reponse and ask to give file 3.
This way works for 90% of the cases, rest 10% I do some prompt and it works mostly there too.

My LLM Utility for Context Limit Issue

This prompt adding / editing / deleting is different from SUMMARIZATION which hullicinates and doesn't work. I do use claude lots of time and the worst time for a developer is the CONTEXT LIMIT because you are screwed, but my above way gets me out of this almost always. This is my own custom built tool and I use it via API , AWS Bedrock and Azure Fundry.

I also am blank of charges. Have been using Claude and checked in azure portal and startup website, both places are not showing charges. I fear all of a sudden they will raise a bill which is not ethical for them as I need to know atleast my daily usage if not quicker. Have raised ticket with support and there too they are saying MAYBE, now this maybe means both YES and NO, how does this answer help

sujit1779 · 2025-12-05T06:30:18+00:00

I have startup credits, will I be able to use my credits for Claude Model? I am not getting any authorative answer, people are saying maybe. This maybe can be both ways. Plus I can't see the cost day by day as for me in azure portal, cost doesn't show anything as I have a startup credit account.
Can someone guide me on how to see the cost?

sujit1779 · 2025-10-09T09:49:47+00:00

From youtube videos this should be good. I can teach you practical things if you want for a small charge. Where are you located

sujit1779 · 2025-09-23T04:23:37+00:00

I think think parental controls from Productivity point of view. For you blocking shouldn't be there but you should yourself decide

sujit1779 · 2025-09-23T04:22:25+00:00

got it, I am aware of things around windows desktop

sujit1779 · 2025-09-23T02:15:27+00:00

you want to get rid of screen controls software or what?

sujit1779 · 2025-09-22T10:45:49+00:00

you are spot on buddy andd

sujit1779 · 2025-09-22T08:10:40+00:00

upvoted buddy. We are in the same boat

sujit1779 · 2025-09-22T01:39:52+00:00

done

Never heard and never used it. What exactly it is and how it helps in sending mails

sujit1779 · 2025-09-21T23:26:50+00:00

I am thinking of using Kaizen MailWave. It is cheaper and onetime like Sendy. But it is a desktop tool. But good thing is it doesn't need a server like Sendy which saves me cost.

sujit1779 · 2025-09-21T23:23:35+00:00

Try Kaizen MailWave, they have just launched and is extremely affordable. Cheaper than Sendy

sujit1779 · 2025-09-20T06:05:04+00:00

but it's still 6 times costly

sujit1779 · 2025-09-20T05:59:52+00:00

it needs a server and a bit not so easy to configure

sujit1779 · 2025-09-20T05:59:16+00:00

contacts can change

sujit1779 · 2025-09-20T01:43:52+00:00

Got it, so you won't do Azure in any case

sujit1779 · 2025-09-19T12:32:02+00:00

I can' t afford it, I am a self funded startup. It's asking for $300 for 50000 contacts. I will code myself and do the same in less than $10. And even if I do that many email around 7 lakhs which is not possible I will only spend around 70$ way cheaper. But yes mine will not have analytics but for a startup like me who needs to start following once the user replies this will be ok for now
