Software firms and cloud providers including Amazon, Microsoft, Figma, and Workday are offering new discounts on AI products to clients and consulting partners. The special offers come as customers become more selective about which tools they purchase after increasing budgets for products like Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex and cutting other costs to justify the new spending. Businesses are also expressing dissatisfaction with shifts by software providers to charge for AI based on usage or the number of tasks completed, which can drive up costs.
