Cool, it's probably about the same, since we're both using the new Sonnet 3.5 for coding.
We might have a bit of an advantage because we pull more files as context so the edit can be more in the style of your existing code.
One downside to use pulling more context is we burn more tokens. That's partly why we have to charge $99 whereas cursor is $20 per month.
- brandonchen 2y agoIt might sound small, but pulling in more context can make a huge difference – I remember one time Cursor completely hallucinated Prisma as part of our tech stack and created a whole new schema for us, whereas Codebuff knew we were already hooked up to Drizzle and just modified our existing schema. But like James said, we do use more tokens to do this, so pros & cons.
- toisanji 2y agoIf its the same, hard to justify $100/month vs $20/month . I code mostly from vim so I'm searching for my vim/cli replacement while I still use both vim and Cursor.
- jahooma 2y agoAh, but in Cursor you (mostly) have to manually choose files to edit and then approve all the changes. With Codebuff, you just chat from the terminal. After trying it, I think you might not want to go back to Cursor haha.
- toisanji 2y agoThat sounds cool and I like the idea, but definitely won't pay 5x. Maybe charge $30/month plus bring your own key. Let me know when you lower the price :)
