Amazon, Microsoft, Figma and Workday Discount AI to Keep Customers From Anthropic, OpenAI

Software firms and cloud providers including Amazon, Microsoft, Figma and Workday are offering new discounts on AI products to clients and consulting partners. The move follows rising budgets for Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex and customer frustration with usage- or task-based AI pricing.

• Amazon, Microsoft, Figma and Workday are offering AI discounts
