Most agency plan comparisons stop at the seat price. For Cursor that is only half the story, because since Cursor moved to The X Subscription the number that matters is the usage pool behind each seat, and which models that pool covers.

Legacy note: Cursor’s older plans (Hobby, Pro, Pro+, Ultra, Teams Standard and Teams Premium) are legacy. Existing subscribers keep them, but new customers cannot buy them. If you are setting up an agency today, you are choosing from the X Subscription ladder below.
The ladder an agency can buy today
Cursor sells new customers The X Subscription. Usage is one weekly pool for Cursor’s own models (Grok 4.7, Grok 4.6, Grok 4.5, Composer 2.5), shared with Grok. Third-party models (Claude, GPT, Gemini) are not included. They are billed at API list price from prepaid credit on Premium and above, and not available at all on Free and Plus.
| Plan | Price | Weekly Cursor pool | Cloud Agents, Automations, Origin, Bugbot |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cursor Plus | $8/mo | 1x | No |
| Cursor Premium | $30/mo | 4x Plus | Yes |
| Cursor Super | $100/mo | 15x Plus | Yes |
| Cursor Ultra | $200/mo | 50x Plus | Yes |
| Teams Premium seat | $30/user/mo | Premium pool per seat | Cloud Agents yes, Bugbot not stated |
| Teams Super seat | $100/user/mo | Super pool per seat | Cloud Agents yes, Bugbot not stated |
There is also an Ultra seat for teams, priced the same as the Ultra plan per user. Prices exclude tax.
What the Teams seat buys
The Teams Premium seat costs the same as an individual Premium plan and carries the same Premium weekly pool. So the seat is not buying extra capacity. It is buying shared admin, SSO and team billing around the same pool, which is what an agency needs to allocate cost to client work. You cannot do that cleanly if six developers each expense a personal subscription.
Plus is not available for teams, so the cheapest way to put a developer on a team is the Premium seat. If a developer regularly exhausts the Premium pool, the Super seat at $100 per user is the next step.
One gap to check before you buy: Cursor’s docs do not say whether Bugbot is included on Teams or Enterprise seats. It is included on Premium and above individual plans. If automated PR review matters to your delivery, ask Cursor before committing a whole roster to seats.
Solo-heavy work: individual Premium is the default
If your delivery is mostly individuals owning their own projects, Cursor Premium at $30 is the plan to start on. It is Cursor’s own comparable plan to the old Pro, and it adds Cloud Agents, Automations, Origin and Bugbot over Plus. Plus at $8 is too light for agency work: it has none of those, and no third-party models.
Super ($100) and Ultra ($200) are usage decisions, not seniority ones. Move someone up when they keep running out of the weekly pool before the week ends. Ultra gives 50x the Plus pool for the people running agents continuously through a delivery crunch.
Remember the two cost layers. The pool covers Cursor’s own models. If your developers prefer Claude or GPT inside Cursor, that spend comes from prepaid credit at API list price on top of the plan, and it scales with how much they use it.
If you already have it: agencies still on legacy Pro ($20), Pro+ or Teams keep them as they are. Legacy Pro, Pro+ and Ultra use two monthly usage pools (Cursor Models and Other Models) and include Bugbot. Cursor does not state whether legacy Teams seats include Bugbot. Either way there is no urgency to move.
Team-heavy work: the mixed roster is normal
Nothing forces an agency onto one tier. The common shape is Teams seats for everyone who touches client code, so cost stays attributable, plus Ultra for the two or three people whose throughput sets the delivery date.
If you are compliance-bound (client contracts that dictate where code and prompts may go), Cursor Enterprise is the tier that adds pooled usage across the organisation with team and member spend controls, priced through sales rather than published.
The escalation trigger
Watch pool exhaustion and prepaid-credit spend per developer, not rate-limit complaints. Complaints tell you someone was interrupted. The pool and credit lines tell you whether moving them up a tier would have been cheaper. When a Premium seat keeps running out of its weekly pool, that developer belongs on the Super seat.
