Pricing Comparison

Cursor

Hobby (Free)

Free

Users: Individual

Limits: No Composer, limited completions, slow requests only, no premium models

Very limited - depletes quickly with regular use. No Composer access. Slow requests instead of fast processing

Pro

Popular

$20/mo

Users: Individual

Limits: No team features, credit-based for premium models

Credits deplete based on model used. Premium models (GPT-4, Claude Opus) consume credits faster. Overage charges possible. Annual saves 20% ($192/year)

Business

$40/mo

Users: Per user

Limits: Still credit-based, requires commitment to full team adoption

Minimum seat requirements may apply. Per-user pricing scales: 50 users = $24,000/year. SOC 2 available but enterprise security concerns remain

Sourcegraph

Free (Cody - DISCONTINUED)

Free

Users: Individual

Limits: DISCONTINUED - migrate to Amp or find alternative

No longer available. Users directed to Amp with $10 transition credits. Product deprecated.

Enterprise Starter

$19/mo

Users: Up to 50 users

Limits: 50 user limit, fewer enterprise features than full Enterprise tier

Capped at 50 users - must upgrade for larger teams. Limited enterprise features. May be affected by future product changes

Enterprise

Popular

$59/mo

Users: Unlimited

Limits: Very expensive, pricing may include LOC component, requires sales process

At $59/user, 100 users = $70,800/year. May also be charged based on lines of code indexed. Volume discounts require negotiation

Amp (New Product)

$0/mo

Users: Individual

Limits: New product, unknown long-term pricing, replaces discontinued Cody individual plans

Credit-based system - free credits run out. Future pricing unclear. New product still evolving
