Cursor Removes Dollar Cost Display from Individual Plan Usage Pages
Key points
- Cursor removed dollar amounts from individual plan usage displays.
- Usage now shows token amounts for included usage.
- On-demand usage beyond included amounts still shows dollar figures.
- Enterprise plans retain dollar amount displays.
Usage Display Change for Individual Plans
Cursor has updated its usage tracking interface for individual plans, replacing dollar cost information with token amounts on the usage page and in CSV exports. This modification means users can no longer directly view their spending in monetary terms within these sections for their included usage.
Impact on User Spending Tracking
The change has made it challenging for individual users to monitor their daily and active spending. Users, particularly those working in teams with shared on-demand usage caps, find it difficult to track personal contributions to the overall cost without transparent per-request cost information.
Reasoning Behind the Design Choice
Cursor stated this is a deliberate design choice due to differences in how enterprise and individual plans are structured. Enterprise plans, which involve pooled usage, will continue to display dollar amounts. For individual plans, displaying dollar amounts for included usage previously caused confusion because the figures often exceeded the user's actual plan cost due to generous included usage.
Where to Find Dollar Information
Users can still find dollar amounts for on-demand spending in the Dashboard > Spending section, which shows the billable amount for the current cycle. Additionally, exporting a CSV from Dashboard > Usage with a specified date range will include dollar amounts in the 'Cost' column for any on-demand usage that incurs charges. Included usage will be marked as 'Included' without a dollar figure.
