Cursor pricing
Partial infoAI-native code editor (VS Code fork) with agentic multi-file editing.
Subscription prices change often. These figures are for planning — always confirm the current price on the official Cursor pricing page.
Cursor is an AI-first editor built on VS Code, known for its Tab autocomplete and an agent that can plan and edit across your whole codebase. Paid tiers bundle a pool of frontier-model requests; the Ultra tier and team plans raise those limits substantially.
Plans & pricing
| Plan | Monthly | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Hobby | Free | Limited agent requests + 2-week Pro trial · Access to frontier models (limited) |
| Pro | $20/mo | Large monthly pool of agent requests, then usage-based · Frontier models (GPT, Claude, Gemini) |
| Ultra | $200/mo | ~20× the Pro usage allowance · Priority access to all frontier models |
| Teams/ seat | $40/mo | Per-seat pool + centralized billing & admin · Frontier models, org controls |
Billing model: Per seat. Entry paid tier: $20/mo.
Subscription vs pay-as-you-go API
Cursor's flat Pro seat bundles a monthly pool of agent requests; heavy agent users can exceed it and move to usage-based billing, where cost tracks the underlying model tokens. If you run long agent sessions, model the token cost with the agent session calculator.
Strengths
- Best-in-class agentic multi-file editing
- Fast, high-quality Tab autocomplete
- Bundles multiple frontier models in one seat
Limitations
- Agent request pools can be exhausted by heavy use
- It's a separate editor, not a plugin for your existing IDE
