One plan now covers Cursor, Grok, Grok Bot, and X.
This is the biggest change to how Cursor is priced.
If you've been with us since the early days, this will feel like a lot, so I'll walk you through it.
First, every change is opt-in. If you do nothing, nothing happens.
You can keep your current plan with the same benefits, behavior, and pricing, and still move between the current plans. New sign-ups and anyone upgrading from free Cursor go to the new plans.
Here's what's different:
1. First-party usage
For most users, Grok and Composer coding limits are at least double what the matching Cursor plan gives you today.
We worked hard to make usage grow faster than price at each tier:
Plus ($8/mo): our base plan
Premium ($30/mo): 4x Plus usage
Super ($100/mo): 15x Plus usage
Ultra ($200/mo): 50x Plus usage
That's on top of every other product included in the plan.
On the new plans, Cursor usage limits move from monthly to weekly. Grok, Cursor, and X share one weekly pool.
All Grok Bot usage is treated as first-party. So on Premium and up, you get at least double the Grok Bot usage.
We know AI can get expensive. If you're trusting us, you should get as much as we can deliver. That's what we're aiming for with these new plans.
2. Products
Every paid plan includes X Premium features. Grok @Bot comes with Premium and up.
If you're reading this on X, you can now get those features as part of Cursor and @Grok. Your plan also covers Grok chat, Voice, and Imagine images and video.
Grok Bot access has been one of the biggest pain points we've heard since it launched, and it's a big part of why we're excited.
3. Third-party models
You can keep using every model you rely on in Cursor.
What's changing is how those models are billed on the new plans: they come out of your usage credits at the provider's API list price, the same as paying the provider directly.
Current Cursor plans subsidize third-party models, so you can get inference below API price.
At @SpaceXSI, we want to give you as much value as we can on our own models. That's why Grok usage limits are increasing and why we're treating Grok Bot usage as first-party.
We're still committed to Cursor being the simplest way to use models from many providers in one place, and we'll have more news on this front in the coming weeks.
If most of your usage is on third-party models, the new plans might cost you more, so check your usage before switching. That's one of the main reasons these plans are opt-in.
Cursor Pro and Pro+ subscribers who switch get Premium at $20/mo or Super at $60/mo for 6 months (normally $30 and $100).
4. Credit unification
Cursor credits and xAI API credits are coming together - prepaid xAI API balances now move into Cursor.
If you've been running the xAI API and Cursor as separate accounts, this is the start of managing both in one place.
It also means tools like Grok Voice become more accessible to all builders, and our biggest Grok users can now take full advantage of Cursor.
That's a lot of stuff! In summary:
Cursor, Grok, and X are all part of SpaceXSI.
That gives us economies of scale, and this unification is one of the main ways we can pass that on to you as savings and more usage.
Whether you should switch depends on which products you use, and that's different for everyone. If you pay for X today or most of your usage is on Grok, the new plans are probably a better deal.

What hasn't changed is why we do this: we want to build the best tools we can for you, and we think one plan across all of these products gets us closer to that.

We've unified plans across Grok, Cursor, and X Premium.

@mattypbscribed!
Was waiting for this one to upgrade (just like everyone else).
What's the usage limit increase for Grok bot and more generally vs the old tiers?
I was on 73% on Grok bot with the supergrok subscription, which has now dropped to 31% with the Super tier. That's less than 3x increase in limits?
How do the new limits translate vs the old limits?

@sreeakkineni Nothing unless you switch. Heavy stays at the same price. If you do switch, it maps to Ultra at $200/mo and you get a prorated refund or credit for the days left.

@mattyport - the checkout page does not let you type manually in the "address" field. I just tried on dia, chrome, and safari, none of them let me move forward. Disabled ad blockers as well.
(in all my attempts I completely filled out all required fields and checked the box and it stilllecting a different country and going back to US as well)

@mattypympathize with the mental gymnastics to figure all this out. Ur pro. But switch the sport and skate to the puck. Pretend all this got acquired and it becomes clear what one would do: there is X for social town square and there is Grok for super intelligence. Just two things. You need that for clarity and adoption. Grok is best name bc it’s harder than Claude or Muse or dot. Grok is it—one new thing that does everything bot and cursor in one elegant UI. 3 plans only with usage: free, pro, ultra.
Rip the bandaid sooner than later and the clarity and scale woooot
