Cursor
VerfügbarCursor is a US-built AI code editor (a VS Code fork) that bundles access to frontier models — Claude, GPT and Gemini — behind a flat monthly subscription. It is the most-searched AI coding tool globally, and the natural "expensive baseline" against which cheaper Chinese plans are compared on this site.
Cursor, built by Anysphere in San Francisco, is the AI code editor most developers reach for first. Its subscription routes requests to frontier models from Anthropic, OpenAI and Google, plus Cursor's own models. That convenience is the value — and the cost: at $20–200/month it is the reference "Western price" that makes Chinese coding plans look like the arbitrage they are. This page exists to put that price gap side by side.

FAQ
How much does Cursor cost in 2026?
Hobby is free. Pro is $20/month, Pro+ is $60/month and Ultra is $200/month on monthly billing (annual is roughly 20% cheaper). Teams is $40/user/month.
Which models does Cursor include?
Cursor routes to frontier models from Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (GPT) and Google (Gemini), plus Cursor's own models. Pro includes about $20/month of usage credits; heavier agentic use consumes credits faster.
Is there a cheaper way to get the same models?
Yes — that is the point of this site. Chinese coding plans and token plans reach comparable frontier models for a fraction of Cursor's price. See the plans list and the API pricing comparison.
