Pros and cons

Cursor

Pros

  • Familiar VS Code-based editor with extension and keybinding support
  • Local and cloud agents that can run in parallel on multi-file tasks
  • Choice of models from several providers, including Cursor's own
  • Covers editor, CLI, web, Slack, iOS and PR review in one product
  • Privacy mode and SOC 2 and ISO certifications for team use

Cons

  • Third-party model usage is billed separately from the plan at API list price
  • Pricing is bundled with Grok and uses weekly usage pools, which makes costs harder to predict
  • No Android app, and the iOS app only controls local agents
  • Indexing can be heavy on very large repositories

Felo

Pros

  • Permanent free plan with 200 credits per day and no credit card required.
  • Combines cited search with slides, images, video and agents in one subscription.
  • Pro plan at about $15 per month includes API access.
  • Multilingual focus, including Japanese-language accuracy.
  • Available on web, iOS and Android.

Cons

  • Credit-based usage makes real limits harder to predict than fixed quotas.
  • Free plan excludes AI Slides, AI Designer, custom agents, video and the API.
  • Pro credits do not roll over between billing cycles.
  • Current pricing is rendered dynamically and older published plan descriptions (search counts) differ from the new credit model.
