Cursor pricing, limits and features
Reviewed
Cursor provides an AI code editor and agents, now sold through The X Subscription.
Current plans and free limits
Official pricing and model documentation agree: Free has limited Agent and Chat usage; Plus costs USD 8/month, Premium USD 30, Super USD 100 and Ultra USD 200. Numeric free request quotas are not published in the checked pages. Paid usage pools refresh weekly and are shared across Cursor and Grok.
Features and integrations
Premium adds cloud agents, automations, Origin code hosting and Bugbot code review. Documentation lists GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira and MCP integrations; availability and configuration depend on the feature and plan.
Costs and legacy plans
Third-party models are unavailable on Free and Plus. On Premium and above they are charged separately from the included pool. Legacy Pro and Pro+ accounts have different monthly pools, so these new prices must not be applied to an existing account automatically. Prices exclude tax.
