Billing
Describe the request
Currently, when the monthly quota is exhausted, users have to wait until the end of the billing cycle to continue using Cursor. This creates a frustrating “feast or famine” usage pattern — power users burn through their quota early in the month and are left with nothing.
Proposal: Instead of a single monthly quota, introduce shorter reset periods — for example:
A weekly allocation (monthly total ÷ 4)
Or an hourly/session-based window similar to Claude Code’s ~5-hour reset model
Benefits:
Encourages more consistent, spread-out usage throughout the month
Naturally helps users self-regulate and optimize their consumption habits
Reduces the frustration of hitting a wall mid-month with weeks to go
Aligns with how other AI tools (e.g., Claude Code) already handle rate limits
This wouldn’t necessarily require giving users more quota — just distributing the same amount more evenly over time. Even a simple UI indicator showing “next reset in X hours” would improve the experience significantly.
Would love to hear if others feel the same way.
