Cursor bundles Grok, charges extra for Claude and GPT

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Cursor has updated its subscription plans, now bundling Grok and its own agent usage into a single weekly pool for new customers. This change, effective October 12, means that third-party models like Claude and GPT are no longer included in the base plan. Users who opt for these external models will be billed at their respective API list prices from the very first request, separate from the subscription fee. Existing subscribers are unaffected and will retain their current plan features unless they choose to switch. AI

IMPACT New Cursor subscribers will face additional costs for using popular third-party models, potentially influencing their choice of AI tools.
