tl;dr: They are f*ked and they have no way out.
$20 on API pricing is what Claude Pro will give you in a day. It doesn't matter how good cursor is, this is a massive limitation and price differential that they can't overcome. Even if they go with DeepSeek which is much cheaper, they are still significantly more expensive than a Claude subscription.
- likium 1y agoThat's what Claude Pro will give you... now. As with Cursor there's no guarantee that it'll last. Next year, next month, next week, they may change their pricing when the competition runs dry.
- senko 1y agoWith competition being Microsoft and Google, that might take a while ...
- csomar 1y agoIt'll not last but it might last longer than Cursor can remain solvent.
- tom_m 1y agoThey aren't the reseller. Also, that wonderful big beautiful bill in the US just limited what states and government can do to AI. It's a clear and open highway for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, etc. They don't have to worry about any kinda rug pulling on Cursor or anything. They can literally compete with their "customers" and put their "customers" or "partners" out of business with zero consequences.
