Did Cursor quietly remove Ultra’s $400 Other Models allowance?

Raşit Akyolopened
Cursor’s $200/month Ultra plan was previously described in both the usage dashboard and the documentation as including $400 of usage for “Other Models,” charged at the model providers’ API rates. That specific dollar amount now appears to be gone from both places. As of September 17, 2026, the current documentation still says that Ultra includes an Other Models pool and that usage is charged at each model’s API price. However, the plan table now says only “Included” and no longer states the size of that pool. Was the $400 monthly allowance actually changed, or was only the wording removed? If the allowance has changed, when did it happen, what is the new limit, and were existing Ultra subscribers notified? For transparency, Cursor should publish the exact included dollar amount for each plan instead of leaving “Included” undefined. Current documentation: https://cursor.com/docs/models-and-pricing

    Cursor’s pricing lists Ultra for agent power users and explains included usage + on-demand overage, but does not spell out a “$400 Other Models” figure on that page — so your “Included” ambiguity stands. The HN Cursor-in-2026 thread shows buyers already comparing Cursor vs Claude Code/Codex on cost; it does not prove a silent allowance cut. We are not claiming a measured Ultra test here — dashboard evidence from subscribers (or a clearer vendor table) would move this from question → documented change.
