Premium gives 4 times the usage of Plus, Super 15 times and Ultra 50 times, and usage refreshes weekly. Teams start at $30 per user a month.

Google Antigravity's pricing page lists a $0 plan for individuals with unlimited Tab completions, unlimited command requests and basic weekly rate limits. Google describes the free quota as a meaningful quota refreshed weekly, and says limits may change. Higher limits and a pool of AI credits come with Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra, which Antigravity links to rather than pricing on its own page. Business Standard and Plus start at $30 per seat a month, and there is also a pay as you go business option.
Editor or platform
Cursor is the editor. You move your work into Cursor, and completions, chat and agents sit inside it. Cloud agents and automations, which keep working while you are away, start on the paid plans.
Antigravity is wider. It ships as a desktop app that acts as a command center for several local agents, a CLI called agy, a full IDE and a Python SDK. It also has extensions for VS Code, Visual Studio, JetBrains, Zed and Xcode, with Eclipse in public preview, so you can keep the editor you know.
Models
Cursor's docs list about 60 models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI (Grok), DeepSeek, Moonshot, Z.ai, Meta and Cursor's own Composer. The cheap Plus plan is Grok only.
Antigravity's models page lists Gemini models on every plan, with Claude Sonnet and Opus available too. Pro and Ultra add the newest Gemini and Claude models. The list changes often, so check the models page for your plan before you commit.
Agents
Antigravity's Agent Manager runs several agents in parallel, a browser command lets an agent debug and research in Google Chrome, and agents leave artifacts such as an implementation plan, a walkthrough and screenshots for you to review. Cursor's agent works inside the editor, and cloud agents run tasks remotely on paid plans.
