Cursor Pricing Includes Grok and X: Plans From $8 to $200

Short answer. On October 19, 2026, cursor.com/pricing sells five plans for one person, from Free to Ultra at $200 a month, and each one includes Grok and X features. Plus, at $8, offers only Grok models. Cloud agents, code reviews and third-party models start with Premium, at $30. Prices are in US dollars, before tax.

In plain words. Cursor’s plans also include Grok and X features. If you only want Cursor to write code, check the plan. The $8 plan uses only Grok models. Cloud agents, code reviews and other companies’ models start with the $30 plan, and those models cost extra.

Cursor’s pricing page does not sell a coding tool on its own. On October 19, 2026 it listed plans named Free, Plus, Premium, Super and Ultra, and each plan card mixed three kinds of feature: Cursor’s, Grok’s and X’s. This post sets out what the page says each plan costs and includes, as it was read that day, once by a script in English and once by hand from Spain in Spanish. It does not guess why the page is built this way.

The plans and what they cost

As the English page printed them, all in US dollars:

PlanPriceUsage, as the page puts it
Free$0 /monthLimited
Plus$8 /monthBasic
Premium$30 /month4x Plus
Super$100 /month15x Plus
Ultra$200 /month50x Plus
Teams$30 +/user/month4-50x Plus
EnterpriseCustomPooled

The usage column is the page’s own row, “Usage | Limited | Basic | 4x Plus | 15x Plus | 50x Plus | 4-50x Plus | Pooled |”. The page gives usage as a multiple of Plus, not as a number of requests. Its FAQ explains the pool: “Every tier includes a pool of AI usage shared across Cursor and Grok. Within Grok, the pool covers Chat, Imagine, Voice, and Bot. Higher tiers include larger pools, and usage costs vary by product. Your allowance refreshes weekly, so one heavy day never wipes out your whole month.”

The Teams tab did not reach the script; it was read by hand from Spain. It shows three seat tiers, quoted in Spanish as shown: Teams Premium at “$30 /mes”, Teams Super at “$100 /mes” with “3.5x” “más uso que con Premium”, and Teams Ultra at “$200 /mes” with “12x” “más uso que con Premium”. The prices are still in US dollars there.

What each plan includes: Cursor, Grok and X

The page’s comparison table groups the features under “Cursor”, “Grok” and “X”. These rows are copied as the English page printed them, one column per plan, from Free to Enterprise:

  • “Agent | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Cloud agents & automations | — | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Code hosting via Origin | — | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “AI code reviews via Bugbot | — | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Third-party models at API list price | — | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Grok API access | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Grok Bot | — | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Video generation | — | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Post, reply, and follow | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Premium checkmark | — | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |”
  • “Ad-free scrolling | — | Some surfaces | Most surfaces | Most surfaces | Most surfaces | Most surfaces | Most surfaces |”

So the free plan already includes the agent and X’s “Post, reply, and follow”. The $8 Plus plan adds Grok API access and the X checkmark. Cloud agents, code hosting, code reviews and third-party models all start at Premium.

Taxes and third-party models

The footer of the English page reads: “Prices shown do not include applicable taxes or fees (e.g. VAT). Third Party model usage in Cursor is not included in the monthly prices shown and must be purchased separately.” The Spanish page says the same: “Los precios indicados no incluyen los impuestos ni las tarifas aplicables (p. ej., el IVA). El uso de modelos de terceros en Cursor no está incluido en los precios mensuales indicados y debe adquirirse por separado.”

The FAQ is more precise about models: “Plus includes Grok models only. Premium and above include generous usage of Grok models but do not include an allowance for third-party models. Third-party models remain available in Cursor at API list price. You pay for exactly what you use, and you can set spending caps to manage costs.” And about the Grok API: “Paid plans include Grok API access. API usage is billed separately at standard model rates and doesn’t draw from your plan’s usage pool.”

When the included use runs out, the page says: “If you reach your included usage, you can keep going with top-offs, or wait for your allowance to refresh.”

If you only want Cursor for coding

Read plan by plan, the page answers this without help:

  • Free includes the agent, with “Limited agent requests” and “Limited Chat requests”.
  • Plus, $8 a month, says “*Only Grok models are available on this plan”. Its card lists Grok and X features: “Grok Chat, Voice, Imagine, and Build”, “Grok API access”, “Premium checkmark” and “Less timeline ads”.
  • Premium, $30 a month, is the first plan with “Cloud agents & automations”, “Code hosting & AI code reviews” and “Third-party models at API list price”. Those third-party models are billed on top of the $30.
  • Super, $100, adds “Priority model access at peak times”, and Ultra, $200, “Earliest access to all products & models”.

The page’s own advice is: “We recommend Premium for new AI users, Super for daily agent users, and Ultra for power users. Plus is recommended for social creators with limited AI usage.”

One more line from the FAQ concerns who sells the plans: “Subscriptions are only sold directly through X Subscription Corp. We do not authorize any resellers or third-party sellers.” That is all the page says about it.

Grok’s page already listed Cursor

Grok’s plans page, read by hand from Spain on October 17, 2026, two days earlier, listed “Cursor” among the features of Grok Plus. Those prices were shown in euros, and Cursor’s are in US dollars, so the two are not set against each other here. Both readings are on their own pages: Cursor pricing and Grok plans and prices. Every coding tool priced the same way is on AI coding tools.

How we checked

cursor.com/pricing was read twice on October 19, 2026. A script read the English page from a server in Finland; it received the Individual tab and the comparison table, in US dollars. The editor read the page by hand from Spain, in Spanish, from screenshots, including the Teams tab the script did not receive. The hand reading’s comparison table was a low-resolution capture, so its figures are published only where the script’s reading prints the same thing, as with Ultra at $200 and “50x”. Grok’s page was read by hand from Spain on October 17, 2026. A test checks every quote and table row above against the saved text of these readings. No currency is converted.
