Cursor is now sold as part of The X Subscription, together with Grok and X. New plans share a weekly usage pool with Grok; older plans such as Pro and Pro+ keep their monthly limits. Here's what Cursor's own pages say.
How Cursor limits work
- Cursor is sold inside The X Subscription, one subscription for Grok, Cursor and X. source
- Paid plans get a weekly pool for Cursor's own models, shared with Grok. source
- Claude, GPT and Gemini models aren't covered by the pool. source
- Unused usage doesn't roll over. source
Limits by plan
Plus
$8 a month, or $80 a year source
- Agent with Cursor's own models (Grok and Composer) at fixed settings; the base pool. source
Super
$100 a month, or $1,000 a year source
- 15 times the Plus usage, with priority at busy times. source
Teams and Enterprise
Premium, Super or Ultra seats at the same prices as the personal plans source
Legacy plans (Hobby, Pro, Pro+, Ultra, old Teams)
What happens when you hit a limit
- You can keep working from prepaid credit, wait for the weekly reset, or upgrade. source
- Cursor says requests are never made slower or lower quality. source
- A monthly cap on paid extra usage applies; when you reach it, extra usage pauses until next month or until you raise it. source
When does my limit reset?
- The weekly reset can't be calculated: Cursor shows each account its next reset date in the editor settings and on the usage dashboard. Legacy plans reset on your own monthly billing date. source
