Claude ‘takes down’ fintech startup as Anthropic suspends over 60 accounts; CTO warns ‘never put your eggs in one basket’

Fintech startup Belo briefly lost access to its workflows and data this week as Anthropic suspended the company from using its AI tool Claude. The details were shared via social media by Chief Technology Officer Pato Molina — a cautionary tale against relying too heavily on a single AI platform.

Molina shared the incident on X (formerly Twitter), saying more than 60 accounts linked to his organisation were suddenly taken down without prior warning or a clear explanation. The suspension disrupted operations, as employees lost access to key workflows, integrations and past conversations that were central to their work.
