Understanding Usage

​

Fast and Slow Requests

There are two types of requests in Cursor, slow and fast that has its own pool.

By default, Cursor servers try to give all users fast premium model requests. However, when users run out of fast premium credits, they are moved to a slow pool. Wait times in the slow pool are calculated proportionally to how many slow requests you’ve used, so they generally remain manageable unless you’re well over your fast request limit.

To bypass wait times entirely, you can enable usage-based pricing (you’ll only be charged for requests beyond your included fast requests).

See models for an overview of which models are premium and their alternatives.

​

Included Requests

Every subscription includes a set amount of fast requests. The number of included requests depends on your plan as shown in the plan comparison above.

​

Additional Requests

We offer usage-based pricing for additional requests beyond your plan’s included quota:

​

Usage-based Pricing

You may opt in to usage-based pricing for requests that go beyond what is included in your Pro or Business plan from your dashboard.

From the dashboard, you can toggle usage based pricing for premium models and other models (see models to understand which model is which). You can also configure a spend limit in USD to make sure you never go over that. Once the spending limit is hit, slow requests will be used.

We will bill for additional fast requests when you’ve made requests totaling $20, or on the 2nd or 3rd day of the month, whichever comes first.

For team accounts, administrators can restrict usage-based pricing settings to admin-only access.

Cost per request for each model can be found on the models page.

​

Fast Requests Packages

Fast Reqeuest Packages were bundles of 500 requests that could be purchased in addition to your plan’s included quota. These have been replaced by usage-based pricing for fast requests, as purchasing them in bundles often meant users would pay for requests they didn’t use.

​

FAQ

​

When do my fast requests reset?

Your Fast Requests reset on a fixed monthly date based on when you first set up your plan. If you purchase additional requests (for example, upgrading from 500 to 1000 requests), the reset date remains unchanged. For instance, if your plan started on the 23rd, your requests will always reset on the 23rd of each month, regardless of when you purchase additional requests.

​

What does “500 premium requests” mean for teams?

Each user gets their own quota of 500 fast requests for premium models per month. These requests are not pooled across the team - every team member gets their own fresh 500 requests when their personal monthly cycle resets.
