Hi Cursor Team and Community, I noticed a couple of exciting updates regarding usage limits recently, but I would like to get some clarification on how they work together and whether they are temporary promotions. Here is what I’m seeing: 2x Included Usage: A popup appeared stating that my plan…

2x usage for Grok 4.5 and Composer 2.5 indefinitely. 2x usage for Grok 4.5 until July 21 (marketed as 50% usage). That means we have 4x of Grok 4.5 usage until July 21. But moving forward it’s 2x for Grok and Composer.

Its a beautiful surprise this morning. My total usage halved and i couldnt be more happy. That said, i also wonder whats going on.

Hey, two different things got mixed up here because the wording sounds similar, plus there’s a small math fix. Grok 4.5 being in the First-Party Models pool is a permanent plan change, not a promo. When Grok 4.5 launched, the Auto + Composer pool was renamed to First-party models, and Grok 4.5 is…

Thanks! Isn’t it confusing that First-party models pool still has identical prices to before, while Plans non-transparently states “First-party models pool have Generous included usage”?

Fair point. There are two different things here, and it’s easy to mix them up: The per-token rate for first-party models (Auto / Composer 2.5 / Cursor Grok 4.5) really didn’t change, so the pricing page looks the same as before. That’s expected. What did change is the size of the included pool. Th…

Thanks, but the link you gave is exactly the one I gave with the statement you agreed is vague. Don’t the Cursor packages give you $X worth of tokens before switching to usage-based? If so, how is pricing not affected? You’d think the First-Party models were to cost less so you’ll reach $X more slo…

So for e.g. my current usage by 21st is 90% then on 21st it will be slashed to 45% and then regular pricing?

@lwc - the reason the per-token price didn’t change but usage still doubled is that there are two separate pools. The 20 / 70 / 400 USD numbers are the API pool for provider-priced third-party models. First-party models like Auto, Composer 2.5, and Cursor Grok 4.5 use a separate first-party pool tha…

Clarification needed: Is the "2x Included Usage" temporary, and how does it relate to the 50% discount?
