Pick Cursor Plus if…
you code occasionally, Grok models are good enough, and the Grok apps are the main draw.
Plus and Premium are the two cheapest paid tiers of X's unified subscription. Plus gets you Cursor with Grok models; Premium, the most popular tier, is where Cursor's own coding features — cloud agents, code hosting and Bugbot reviews — switch on.
Plus ($8/mo) suits light coding with Grok models. Pick Premium ($30/mo) if Cursor is your daily editor: 4× the usage, cloud agents, AI code reviews, and the option to use Claude or GPT at API list price.
