Cursor pricing plans now run on a weekly usage pool

Cursor pricing plans now sit inside The X Subscription: Free, Plus at $8 a month, Premium at $30, Super at $100 and Ultra at $200, with Teams from $30 per user a month and custom Enterprise deals. The bigger change is the meter, because each tier now buys a weekly pool of AI usage shared with the Grok apps, and third-party models like Claude or GPT are billed apart from it.

The tiers at a glance

Prices exclude taxes. Cursor recommends Premium for new AI users, Super for daily agent users and Ultra for power users, and positions Plus for social creators with light AI use. Higher tiers include larger pools.

What the weekly pool changes

Under the old plans, usage reset once a month with the billing cycle. The new pool refreshes weekly, which Cursor pitches as a guard against one heavy day eating the whole month. The pool covers Cursor's own models, Grok and Composer, and is shared with Grok Chat, Imagine, Voice and Grok Bot. So time spent in the Grok apps and time spent in the editor draw from the same allowance.

Third-party models are no longer part of any allowance. On Premium and above they stay available in Cursor at API list price, paid from prepaid credit that you top up. That credit does not reset with the pool and, per Cursor's help pages, currently expires 365 days after purchase. A monthly additional usage limit caps how much of it you can spend.

Legacy plans keep running

Developers on Pro ($20), Pro+ ($60), Ultra ($200) or the legacy Teams seats can stay where they are. Cursor's legacy plans page says switching is optional and permanent. Legacy plans keep two monthly pools, one for Cursor's models and one for other providers' models, with on-demand usage billed in arrears above them. Anyone who leans on Claude or GPT inside Cursor should price that out before moving, since the new plans drop the included third-party allowance.

Where developers see what they used

On The X Subscription, the Usage page at grok.com/dashboard shows how much of the weekly pool is gone, the next reset date and the prepaid credit balance, and the editor settings show the same remaining usage. Legacy users check the Spending tab at cursor.com/dashboard.

Those views cover Cursor alone. For a running picture across tools, UsageAtlas is the pick: a free, open-source desktop tracker that reads the signed-in Cursor app and shows plan, Auto + Composer and API usage next to Claude Code, Codex and other coding tools, with an alert before you run low. Its cost figures are estimates; Cursor's dashboard remains the bill.

What to watch next

The move ties Cursor's pricing to xAI's consumer bundle, and the plan page now lists X features such as ad-free scrolling beside agent features. For a developer, the practical questions are simpler: does a weekly refill suit how you work, and how much of your coding runs on third-party models that now cost extra. A week of tracked usage answers both better than the plan table does.
