Pricing

| Attribute | Cursor | Google Antigravity | OpenCode |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plans | Free Free Trying the editor and a few agent runs. | IndividualOur pick Free Trying agent-based coding without paying. | OpenCode Free Anyone with their own model access, or happy with the free models. |
Plus $8/mo Light users who are happy with Grok models only. | Google AI Pro $19.99/mo People who already have or want the Google AI Pro bundle. | Zen Pay as you go, from a $20 top-up People who want top models without a subscription. | |
PremiumOur pick $30/mo Most developers, especially if you want Claude alongside Grok. | Google AI Ultra From $99.99/mo Developers who want Antigravity as a daily driver. | GoOur pick $10/mo Most people who want to code daily on a budget. | |
Super or Ultra $100/mo or $200/mo Heavy daily agent users. | Business (via Google Cloud) From $30/seat/mo Companies already on Google Cloud. | Go Plus $40/mo Heavy users who hit the Go limits. | |
Legacy Pro $20/mo Existing subscribers only. New customers can't buy it. | Enterprise Custom Companies rolling it out to a team. | ||
Teams From $30/user/mo Companies that need admin controls and SSO. | |||
| Which plan to pick | If you are on the old $20 Pro plan and it covers what you use, stay put; switching is permanent. New customers should skip Plus unless they are happy with Grok. Premium is the realistic starting point if you want Claude, and budget for the extra usage billing on top of the $30. Large companies can ask about a custom Enterprise plan. | Start on the free Individual tier; it is the whole point. If you hit the weekly limits and you also use Gemini for other things, Google AI Pro at $19.99 is a sensible step. Ultra only makes sense for full-time developers. | Start free. If the free models feel thin, OpenCode Go at $10 a month is the best-value upgrade in this category. Only add Zen or a Claude or OpenAI API key when you need a frontier model for a hard job, and set a spending cap when you do. |
