Gemini vs Cursor: which plan fits your work?

Prices for United States, before sales tax Data release 2026.10.16-3, Oct 16, 2026 Rules 2.1.0

Comparing Google AI Pro and X Subscription Premium: individual plans, prices for United States. Change the plans below to compare any other two.

The verdict is being reviewed because facts about these plans changed. The comparison below already shows the current facts.

This page is for developers choosing between Google AI Pro, at $19.99 a month or $199.99 a year paid up front, and Cursor Premium, at $30 a month before tax. Cursor Premium is the lowest Cursor plan with cloud agents and Bugbot pull request reviews. Google documents no pull request review on any consumer plan, because it shut down the consumer Gemini Code Assist on GitHub, so for Gemini we picked Google's standard paid plan: it documents Jules, cloud tasks that can open pull requests, with higher limits, plus Google Antigravity. We also cover the Gemini free tier, Google AI Plus and Ultra, and Cursor Free and Plus.

The facts come from Google's, Cursor's and xAI's own pages, checked on October 12 and 13, 2026. We have not tested either product, so nothing here says whose agent writes working code. Where a vendor is silent we say not verified, which is different from documented as not offered.

What you pay, and what comes with it

Google AI Pro is $19.99 a month, or $199.99 a year paid up front. Students can get it free for one year after verification. Cursor Premium is $30 a month, monthly only, and Cursor's prices exclude tax; Google does not say on the pages we checked whether tax is included.

Neither price buys only a coding tool. Google AI Pro includes 5 TB of storage, YouTube Premium Lite, Google Home Premium Standard, Google Health Premium, and Gemini in Gmail, Docs and Sheets. Since October 12, 2026, Cursor's plans are sold as the X Subscription. Premium has one usage pool, four times Plus and refreshed weekly, shared by Cursor and Grok, and xAI says it bundles SuperGrok, Cursor Pro and X Premium+. That brings Grok Chat, Grok Imagine images, Grok video and Grok Voice, and X ad-free on "most surfaces".

Where each one works

Google's coding tools sit outside the Gemini app. Google Antigravity is an IDE and CLI with extensions for VS Code, Visual Studio, JetBrains, Zed and Xcode, and Google says it is free with a personal Google Account, with no subscription. Consumer access to Gemini Code Assist in the IDE and Gemini CLI ended on June 18, 2026. Pro also lists AI Studio and Android Studio among its coding tools.

Cursor is its own desktop editor, with a CLI for macOS, Linux, WSL and Windows, web agents at cursor.com/agents, and an iOS and iPadOS app listed for paid plans. Its agent also runs in JetBrains IDEs version 2025.1 or later through ACP, and with Xcode 26.3 or later projects through an MCP bridge.

Completions and the agent in your editor

Antigravity lists unlimited Tab completions in its IDE on every plan, including its $0 plan; Google does not say whether they also work in the VS Code or JetBrains extensions. What Pro adds is agent capacity: a higher Antigravity quota that refreshes every five hours up to a weekly limit, with AI credits for overages. The free tier gets basic weekly limits.

Cursor Premium documents Tab autocomplete that is multi-line, works across files and jumps to the next edit. The new pricing page states no Tab limit; xAI says Premium includes Cursor Pro benefits, and Cursor Pro listed unlimited Tab. For Cursor Free and Plus the Tab limit is not verified. Cursor Agent, on every plan, edits files, runs terminal commands and searches your code.

Cloud agents

Jules, a beta for users 18 and over, runs tasks in a cloud VM on connected GitHub repos and can publish a branch or open a pull request. On Google AI Pro, Jules' limits page lists 100 daily tasks over a rolling 24 hours, 15 at once, and higher access to the latest model. The free tier gets 15 daily tasks, 3 at once, on Gemini 2.5 Pro.

Cursor's cloud agents, from Premium, run in cloud VMs on GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps repos, work on a branch and open pull requests. You can start them from the web, Slack, GitHub comments or the iOS app. They draw on the shared weekly pool, and Cursor publishes no task count. Whether either agent's pull requests are correct is for testing: hand both the same task from our code spec kit.

Pull request review

This is a documented gap on Google's side. Google deprecated the consumer Gemini Code Assist on GitHub app on June 18, 2026 and shut it down on July 17, 2026. It documents no replacement reviewer for any consumer plan, and Jules only answers comments on its own pull requests.

Cursor Premium includes Bugbot, which reviews GitHub and GitLab pull requests automatically on each update and comments with bugs, security issues and suggested fixes. It is usage-based, and not on Cursor Free or Plus. The documentation does not say how useful its comments are; our code repair kit gives you a known bug to check against.

Models, and how they are billed

The Gemini app lists Google models only: 3.8 Flash and 3.1 Pro on Pro, with a 1 million token context. Inside Antigravity, Pro's model list adds Claude Sonnet 5.5 and Opus 5.5 from Anthropic, for non-trial subscriptions only, plus Claude 4.6 models and GPT-OSS-120b, which are marked for removal on November 2, 2026. On the free tier and Plus, the non-Google models in Antigravity are only those being removed.

Cursor Premium includes Grok 4.7 and Composer 2.5 from its pool. Models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and Meta, such as Claude Opus 5.5, Claude Fable 5.1, GPT-5.6 Sol and Gemini 3.1 Pro, are billed separately at API list price through top-ups, with spending caps. Grok 4.7 has a 256k standard window and 500k long context, with input over 256k billed at twice the rate.

Privacy and training

Google uses Gemini chats for training by default for users 18 and over. Turning off Keep Activity stops it, but chats are still kept for up to 72 hours, and memory of past chats needs Keep Activity on. Export is through Google Takeout. Cursor's Privacy Mode keeps code data out of training by Cursor and model providers, under zero data retention agreements; with it off, Cursor may train on codebase data and prompts. The Cursor pages we checked do not document a data export.

Which one for which situation

Every pull request needs an automated review

Cursor Premium. Bugbot reviews GitHub and GitLab pull requests on each update. Google documents no pull request reviewer on any consumer plan since the consumer Gemini Code Assist on GitHub shut down on July 17, 2026.

Your repos live on GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps

Cursor Premium. Its cloud agents are documented for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and Azure DevOps repos. Jules is documented for connected GitHub repos; other hosts are not documented for it, so not verified.

You want to try an AI editor without paying

Start with Antigravity: Google says it is free with a personal Google Account, lists unlimited Tab completions in its IDE, and has basic weekly agent limits. Cursor Free gives limited agent and chat requests, and its Tab limit is not verified. Run the code repair kit in both.

You want Claude models while you code

Google AI Pro lists Claude Sonnet 5.5 and Opus 5.5 in Antigravity's model selector, for non-trial subscriptions. On Cursor Premium, Claude Opus 5.5 and Claude Fable 5.1 are available but billed separately at API list price, outside the included pool.

You run many small cloud tasks at once

Google AI Pro documents numbers: Jules allows 100 daily tasks and 15 at once on Pro. Cursor documents cloud agents on Premium but no task count; they draw on the weekly pool shared with Grok. Check which limit your work hits first.

Your day also runs on Gmail and Docs

Google AI Pro. It puts Gemini in Gmail, Docs and Sheets and adds Meet notes and 5 TB of storage. Cursor's bundle adds Grok Chat as a general chatbot, but no Gmail, Docs or Sheets integration is documented.

Test them on your own work

We have not run these tests for you unless a result above says so. Each kit gives you the same files, the same prompt and the same checks for both tools.

Questions

Why compare Google AI Pro if it has no pull request review?

Because no consumer Google plan documents one. The consumer Gemini Code Assist on GitHub shut down on July 17, 2026, with no replacement. Pro is Google's standard paid plan and documents Jules with higher limits, which can open pull requests, plus a higher Antigravity quota.

Is Google Antigravity free, and what does Pro add?

Google says Antigravity is free with a personal Google Account, with basic weekly limits and unlimited Tab completions in its IDE. Pro adds a higher quota, refreshed every five hours up to a weekly limit, AI-credit overages, and Claude Sonnet 5.5 and Opus 5.5 (non-trial subscriptions only).

What is the X Subscription, and what does Cursor Premium include?

Since October 12, 2026, Cursor's plans are sold as the X Subscription. Premium adds cloud agents, Bugbot and Origin code hosting (early beta) to Cursor, plus Grok Chat, Imagine, Voice and video, and X Premium features. Cursor and Grok share one pool that refreshes weekly.

Can I use Gemini models in Cursor?

On Premium and up, yes: Cursor lists Gemini 3.1 Pro among third-party models, billed at API list price in addition to the subscription. Cursor Free has no third-party models, and Plus is documented with Grok models only.

Do Google and Cursor train on my code?

Google trains on Gemini chats by default for users 18 and over; turning off Keep Activity stops it but also stops memory of past chats. Cursor's Privacy Mode keeps code out of training; with it off, Cursor may train on codebase data and prompts. Check the setting before you open private code.

Which agent writes working code?

Neither vendor's documentation answers that, and we have not tested these plans yet. Give Jules or Antigravity and Cursor's agent the same task from our code repair, code spec or code refactor kits, and compare the results against the kit's checks.
