Value by kind of work

Turns of mixed coding work the allowance covers in a month, each kind on the plan’s cheapest model that is good enough. How this is worked out.

Work mix	Turns a month	Per dollar
Light only (100% light)	88–349	2.9–12
Mostly light (40% normal, 60% light)	8.6–34	0.29–1.1
Balanced (5% frontier, 15% hard, 60% normal, 20% light)	0.079–0.31	0.0026–0.01
Mostly hard (10% frontier, 40% hard, 40% normal, 10% light)	0.037–0.15	0.0012–0.0049

On the balanced mix: frontier work on Grok 4.7 (xhigh reasoning), counting 0% of a turn; hard work on Grok 4.7 (xhigh reasoning), counting 0% of a turn; normal work on Grok 4.7 (xhigh reasoning), counting 4% of a turn; light work on Grok 4.7 (low reasoning).

How the figure was obtained

Cursor publishes only multiples of Plus. Range from users' usage-dashboard screenshots since the 30 October 2026 cut, which include Grok app usage, valued at Grok 4.7 prices with a 95% cache-read mix. Plus is Premium ÷ 4. Composer 2.5 is also in the pool but not benchmarked.
