> For those of you on the current $20 Pro plan, are you actually getting enough usage out of it for daily development work?

I’m on a team account but we’re just on the base plan for all members. It’s not anywhere near enough anymore. If I use only Cursor in-house models for light use I can stretch it to last me the full month.

A few months ago my team also got a Claude organization set up (also base tier). Our non-dev team members use Claude Desktop heavily, so we added it for devs to try out Claude Code. Now, I use Claude Code heavily for most of my dev work. Plus I use Claude Desktop for all sorts of non-dev stuff. I’ve literally never hit a single Claude usage limit despite a lot of daily use. (I do mostly use Sonnet, rarely Opus).

I still use Cursor here and there, I really like the IDE interface and typically use it for double-checking Claude’s work, or in ask mode to learn about the codebase and plan things out. Even with this light usage and in-house only models it seems like my usage drains away at an alarming rate.
