I’m on a business plan by myself. If I try to change from 500 to 1000 fast requests, it says the billing would change immediately but doesn’t mention by how much it would cost or anything about pricing.

Hey, I’m not on the business plan, but I think the pricing system is the same. When you add an extra 500 requests, it will cost an additional $20 per month. So, it totals $20 + $20 = $40.

I upgraded to another 500 fast requests ca. 15min ago, (and restarted Cursor in between a few times) but still I still have “using slow request”…

Try logging out of your account in the Cursor settings, and then log back in through the website.

I can now use claude 3.5 sonnet, but o1-mini does not work (is that still limited after buying 500 more?)  
Also what is very annoying, even after selecting claude 3.5 sonnet, every other prompt it switches automatically back to o1-min and tells me I need to wait… and then I have to manually switch back to claude 3.5 and send the prompt again

You have access to 500 fast requests to these models.

The o1-mini is priced differently.

o1 models use the “Optional Usage-Based Pricing”, 1 message cost $0.4, here is screenshot that I test 2 o1 model message, cost me $0.8

Hey, I see the number 2 before your request, meaning there were 2 requests, not just one. That’s why you’re seeing a total of $0.80 for both requests.

That’s correct, it’s 2 messages. I usually use Claude 3.5 Sonnet, but for some complicated problems, I switch to o1. It solved my problem with fewer prompts and was less buggy

Hi,

I’m having the same issue. Even after logging out and back in under the Cursor settings, I still get the “using slow requests” message, even though I’ve added 500 requests for an extra $20.

It’s really frustrating.
