📝 Our Take on Cursor Pricing

Cursor has redefined what an AI-native IDE looks like. The Tab completion feels genuinely magical for repetitive patterns, and multi-file editing (Composer) can scaffold entire features in minutes. The privacy trade-off is real though — your code is sent to cloud for AI processing by default, with a privacy mode available on Business plans.

💡 Bottom Line:

At $20/month for Pro, Cursor pays for itself if it saves you even 2 hours per month. The free tier (50 slow requests) is enough to evaluate, but too limited for daily use. For teams, the $40/user Business plan is steep — consider whether VS Code + Copilot ($10/user) covers 80% of your needs at half the cost.
