Devin Pro vs Cursor Pro (2026): Price, Usage and Which to Pick
Devin Pro vs Cursor Pro, plan for plan: monthly and yearly price, included usage, models, agent features and what happens when you run out, from both vendors.
7 min read
Devin plans, quotas and model rates checked Nov 1, 2026 on Devin’s pricing page and Devin’s docs. Cursor plans, legacy rules and usage pools checked Nov 2, 2026 on Cursor’s pricing help and legacy plans docs. Every source is listed at the bottom. No affiliate links on this page (how we work).
Short answer: they’re not the same price for a new buyer, because new customers can’t buy Cursor Pro. Devin Pro is $20 a month. Cursor Pro is also $20 a month, but as of Nov 2, 2026 it’s a legacy plan that “isn’t available to new customers”. Cursor points former Pro buyers to Premium, which is $30 a month ($300 a year). So the real new-customer fight is Devin Pro at $20 against Cursor Premium at $30. If you already have Cursor Pro, you keep it at $20 until you switch or cancel, and that comparison is a straight $20 vs $20.
TL;DR by situation
- You’re a new customer and want the cheapest agent IDE of the two: Devin Pro, $20 vs Cursor Premium’s $30. Different prices, so this one isn’t a tie.
- You already have legacy Cursor Pro and lean on Claude or GPT: keep it. Legacy Pro includes an “Other Models” pool for third-party models. Premium doesn’t; there, third-party models are billed at API list price from prepaid credit.
- You mostly use Cursor’s own models (Grok, Composer): Cursor says every plan on its new lineup includes “at least twice as much coding usage with Cursor models” as the legacy plan it replaces. Switching is permanent, though.
- You want to pay yearly: only Cursor publishes an annual price for new customers ($300 for Premium). Devin doesn’t publish an annual price, and Cursor doesn’t publish the legacy Pro yearly price.
- You want cloud agents from the cheapest plan: both include them. Devin Pro lists “Access to cloud agents (Devin Cloud)”. Legacy Cursor Pro includes Cloud Agents.

What you get
Devin Pro
Devin’s Pro card lists frontier models from several labs plus open models, “Full model availability”, “Free use of SWE-2”, “Access to cloud agents (Devin Cloud)” and “Purchase extra usage at API pricing”. You get up to 10 concurrent sessions (Devin pricing, verified Nov 1, 2026).
The quota covers “Devin sessions, Devin CLI, and Devin Desktop” (self-serve docs, verified Nov 1, 2026). Devin Desktop is the editor formerly known as Windsurf; the backstory is in Devin Desktop (formerly Windsurf).
Model rates come out of the quota per 1M tokens (input/output): Claude Opus 5.5 $4/$20 and Claude Sonnet 5.5 $2/$10. SWE-2 is free in Devin Desktop and Devin CLI through Nov 30, 2026 (not in cloud sessions), then $3/$15 (Devin models docs, verified Nov 1, 2026). Devin’s self-serve docs also list ChatGPT plan token sharing on Pro.
Cursor Pro (legacy)
Legacy Pro “include[s] both usage pools, unlimited Tab completions, Bugbot, Cloud Agents, Automations, Origin, and the Cursor SDK” (legacy plans docs, verified Nov 2, 2026). The two pools are:
- Cursor Models: included usage for Grok 4.7, Grok 4.6, Grok 4.5 and Composer 2.5.
- Other Models: third-party models, “drawn down at each model’s API price”.
Both pools reset with your monthly billing cycle. Fast mode and Grok effort levels are available.
Cursor Premium (what new buyers get instead)
Premium is $30 a month or $300 a year, sold as part of Cursor’s new lineup alongside Plus ($8), Super ($100) and Ultra ($200) (pricing help, verified Nov 2, 2026). Usage is one weekly pool for Cursor models, shared with Grok, and Grok and X benefits are included. Third-party models aren’t included; on Premium and above they’re available at API list price from prepaid credit (legacy plans docs).

When you run out
Devin Pro. The quota “refreshes automatically on a daily and weekly basis” (Devin pricing). Hit it and you can buy extra usage “billed at API list prices”, and “Quota limits never limit your extra usage” (quota docs, verified Nov 1, 2026). Purchased credits “never expire” (self-serve docs). Also handy: “free models don’t count against your quota at all”, so switching to a free model is a legit way to keep going.
Cursor Pro (legacy). On individual plans, on-demand usage is “Off until you turn it on” under Spending at cursor.com/dashboard/spending, where you set a monthly limit. It’s “billed monthly in arrears at the same per-model rates as included usage, with no change in quality or speed” (legacy plans docs, verified Nov 2, 2026). Leave it off and you wait for the monthly reset.
Cursor Premium. Extra usage comes from top-ups that add prepaid credit, with optional Auto Top-up and a monthly additional usage limit (same page). The weekly pool resets weekly.
So which has higher usage limits? Nobody can tell you with a straight face. Devin doesn’t publish its quota size, and Cursor doesn’t publish pool sizes for Pro or Premium. The only published ratio is Cursor’s own: Premium gets at least twice the Cursor-model usage of legacy Pro, minus the third-party pool. More on each in Devin usage limits and Cursor usage limits.
Cursor took a $20 plan that people liked, stopped selling it, and pointed new buyers at a $30 plan that drops the third-party model pool. Switching is “optional and permanent”. You can see the logic, but if you signed up for Cursor because it let you use Claude and GPT under one bill, Premium quietly turns that into a separate prepaid line item. That’s a 50% price bump at the entry point for new customers, and it’s a real loss.
Free trials and refunds
Devin doesn’t offer a free trial. It says you can request a refund before you use the plan (self-serve docs, verified Nov 1, 2026). Cursor has a free plan (Hobby on the legacy side) with limited usage; see Cursor vs Windsurf for how the free tiers compare.
Here’s what I’d do
- Starting fresh, budget is $20: Devin Pro. It’s the only one of the two you can buy at $20, it includes cloud agents, and free models don’t touch the quota.
- Starting fresh, you want Cursor’s editor: Premium at $30, or $300 a year. Budget separately for any Claude or GPT use, because that comes from prepaid credit.
- On legacy Cursor Pro: stay unless you’re all-in on Grok and Composer. You can’t come back once you switch.
- Heavy on Claude Opus all day: neither $20 plan is built for that. Look at Devin Pro vs Max or Devin Pro vs Claude Pro.
