Asister coding AI Windsurf Startup assistant reduced his prices “in the whole form” he announced on Mondaypromoting “huge savings” for your users when the competition with a competing cursor is intensified.
Windsurf said he was eliminating the complex “Flow Credit” system, which he burdened programmers for the actions that AI performed in the background. He also lasts the prices of team plans as much as USD 30 per user monthly from USD 35, while making his company plans “much cheaper” as announced.
Windsurf Rob Hou marketer announced on x This Windsurf now has “by far the best and cheapest price structure of all AI coding tools on the market”, attributing to Windsurf the optimization of the use of GPU.
Hou criticized the “misleading” competition plans for $ 20 monthly in a visible excavation in the individual monthly cursor plan, which starts from USD 20 in comparison with USD 15.
Price review occurs when Windsurf is reportedly considered for taking up Opennai for $ 3 billion (cursor creator, any parties talks about a valuation value $ 10 billion). As TechCrunch informed earlier, Windsurf is a smaller of two encoding assistants, generating about $ 100 million in ARR in comparison with $ 300 million Cursor. Opeli originally desired to buy a cursor, but it grows so fast that it is not on the market to be sold.
Although Windsurf has not confirmed the reports on OPENAI’s acquisitions, he recently increased his public cooperation with Opeli.
For example, CEO of Windsurf Varun Mohan appeared at the starting of this month In the premiere film OPENAI for the latest API Model family. As a part of the announcement of changes in prices, Windsurf gives its users the next week of free and unlimited use of the latest GPT-4.1 and O4-Mini OpenAI models.
The most vital query is whether the cursor reduces its own prices in response to the reconstruction of Windsurf. This can risk a price cutting war, which hinders each profit startups.
Windsurf, who refused to comment on this text, said in the announcement that he was still making the promise “from the very beginning” to transfer savings back to users.
Cursor, the creator of Anysphere didn’t answer the request for comment.
