Clarification, not a plan change. Cursor’s legacy-plans doc states that legacy Ultra ($200/mo — still honoured for existing subscribers, no longer sold) splits included usage into two monthly pools, and that the Other Models pool covers third-party models drawn down at each model’s API price; the X Subscription Ultra we price includes one shared Cursor-model pool and bills third-party usage at API list price from prepaid credit. The note on the Ultra row now carries that distinction. Cursor publishes that the legacy allowance exists but no dollar size and no reduction figure, so none is recorded — the r/cursor estimate of $400/mo down to ~$125/mo comes from one subscriber’s own usage CSV and is not encoded. No price, ceiling, roster or per-token rate moves.

Cursor is sold as The X Subscription from today, and Plus $8/mo is its entry paid tier — the cheapest way into Cursor, Grok and X in one plan. It carries the base shared usage pool (the Grok models served in Cursor and in Grok draw on the same weekly allowance, which refreshes weekly and can be extended with top-ups), Grok API access billed separately at standard model rates, and X Premium-style benefits. Only Grok models are available on this tier and Grok Bot is not included. Annual billing is $80/yr ($7/mo).

The $30 tier of The X Subscription replaces the separate Cursor Pro and SuperGrok subscriptions in one plan (xAI frames it as the previous $90/mo combination of SuperGrok, Cursor Pro and X Premium+). Subscribers get 4× the Plus included pool for Grok models across Cursor and Grok, Grok Bot, cloud agents and automations, code hosting and Bugbot reviews. Direction stated per subscriber: better on breadth and price against buying the two plans separately, but the old Cursor Pro included a $20/mo API pool for third-party models that the new tier does not replace — third-party usage in Cursor now bills separately at API list price from the first request, through top-up credits.

New middle tier of The X Subscription. Same shape as Premium with 15× the Plus included pool, Grok Bot, and priority model access during peak demand; third-party models in Cursor remain outside the included usage and bill separately at API list price. Annual billing is $1,000/yr ($84/mo).

Ultra keeps its $200/mo price but its included usage was restructured: the $400/mo API pool that third-party models drew on is gone from the live pages, replaced by one shared weekly pool for Grok models only. Same price, and the Grok-side allowance is now stated as 50× the Plus pool, but any third-party model in Cursor bills separately at API list price from the first request. Cursor's own docs still describe the retired two-pool design ($400/mo Other Models pool) for existing subscribers, whose plans continue; the live pricing page documents only the shared pool.

Common questions
Which Cursor plan is cheapest?
Cursor Plus at $8/mo. The cheapest plan is not always the best value — compare Req/$1 in the calculator.
How many plans does Cursor offer?
4 tiers tracked, 4 currently active. Every tier is in the plans table below with its price, models and usage ceiling.
What is Cursor?
Cursor is an AI-native coding IDE from a US company. Its plans are now the tiers of The X Subscription (Plus $8 / Premium $30 / Super $100 / Ultra $200), which bundle Cursor\u2019s coding agents with Grok and X Premium benefits on one shared weekly usage pool.
Which models do the Cursor plans include?
The tracked tiers list 16 models: Grok 4.5, Grok 4.6 and Grok 4.7 served from the shared pool (Plus is Grok-only), plus the third-party set Premium and above make available in Cursor — Claude Opus 5.5, Opus 5, Sonnet 5.5, Sonnet 5, Fable 5.1 and Fable 5, GPT-5.6 Luna, Sol and Terra, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Gemini 3.8 Flash and Gemini 3.7 Flash, and Muse Spark 1.3 — billed separately at API list price rather than from the pool.
Can I use Cursor plans with any agent (BYOK)?
No — Cursor plans work inside the Cursor IDE rather than as a standalone endpoint. Third-party models in Cursor bill at their API list prices outside the included usage, and Cursor also supports bringing your own API key.
How does Cursor billing work?
One shared usage pool covers Grok models wherever you use them — in Cursor or in Grok — and refreshes weekly. Cursor does not publish the pool\u2019s dollar size, so the calculator bills Grok models against the plan price as a coarse estimate. Third-party models are not part of the included usage: they run on top-up credits billed at API list price from the first request, and those rows render n/a.
Who are the Cursor plans for?
Developers who live in an IDE and want a single subscription for agentic editing plus pay-as-you-go access to the frontier third-party models.
