Bugbot is switching from a $40 per seat per month subscription to usage-based billing for Teams and Individual plans.

For existing customers, this change will start at your next billing renewal after June 8th, 2026. For example, if you bought an annual subscription in May 2026, these changes will only take effect in May 2027.

#Usage-based pricing

We are removing seat fees for Bugbot and transitioning to purely usage-based billing. For Teams, Bugbot will bill from on-demand spend; for Individuals, it will bill from included usage.

The average Bugbot run costs $1.00-$1.50, depending on PR size and complexity. Existing customers can switch to usage-based billing early in the Cursor dashboard.

#Bugbot effort levels

With usage billing, you can now choose the effort level Bugbot uses when reviewing PRs. Users can configure Bugbot to think for longer and run deeper reviews, or set up custom logic that Cursor uses to dynamically determine review effort.

Default effort preserves how Bugbot works today: 80% of bugs identified are resolved by merge time. From our internal runs, Bugbot with high effort finds 35% more bugs while resolution rate stays constant at 80%.
