Conceptual engraving: an exploded API gateway with one blue access key represents discounted, metered government access to Claude.

The US General Services Administration expanded its OneGov agreement with Anthropic to give eligible federal, state, local and tribal buyers a 40% discount on token-based Claude usage with no minimum order. Direct ordering is available now, while Anthropic says discounted cloud-provider purchases will follow in the coming months.

Why it matters

The deal moves government AI procurement from a temporary nominal-price offer toward metered usage, widening access while making total costs depend on token consumption.
