Lovable

Lovable adds Chats with a daily chat allowance

Messages in Lovable's new Chats and Chat mode are priced per message, typically a fraction of a credit, and are covered first by a daily chat allowance on Free, Pro and Business (larger on paid plans; size not published). After that they use daily build credits, then general credits. Lovable says this chat pricing is temporary and applies through Oct 31, 2026. Enterprise has no allowance.

Took effect: Sep 21, 2026 (temporary pricing through Oct 31, 2026)

Lovable

Lovable may train its AI models on Free and Pro data

Under Lovable's updated privacy policy, content from Free and Pro accounts (prompts, attached files, code, project files and generated outputs) may be used to train Lovable's AI models. Users can opt out at any time in Account settings, at no cost. Apps' end-user data isn't used, and Business and Enterprise workspaces stay excluded by default.

Took effect: Sep 9, 2026

Lovable

Lovable removes public projects; every project is now private to its workspace

Lovable no longer lets anyone create public projects, and all existing public projects were switched to workspace visibility. Free projects had been public by default until November 2025. Published apps are a separate setting and stay reachable at their URL unless access is limited.

Took effect: Apr 22, 2026

Bolt.new

Bolt.new adds a $9/mo Lite plan

Bolt Lite is $9/mo and only uses Bolt Forge, the agent that runs open-source models (GLM 5.3, GLM 5.3 Flash, Kimi K3, DeepSeek v4 Pro). Lite doesn't include the Standard or Max agents, custom domains, Supabase or extra usage. Forge launched Sep 14, 2026 alongside Lite, and Bolt's pricing page said Forge was included with Pro until Oct 18, 2026. Pro ($25/mo, or $18/mo billed yearly) and Teams ($30 per member/mo) are unchanged.

Took effect: Sep 14, 2026

GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot switches from premium requests to AI credits

Since June 1, 2026, Copilot bills chat, agent mode, Copilot CLI, the cloud agent and other AI features in GitHub AI Credits (1 credit = $0.01), priced by model and tokens. Code completions don't use credits. Premium requests now apply only to existing annual Pro and Pro+ subscribers who stayed on legacy billing. Past your allowance, usage costs $0.01 per credit.

Took effect: Jun 1, 2026

GitHub Copilot

Copilot individual sign-ups paused, then reopened

GitHub paused new paid individual Copilot sign-ups on April 20, 2026 and began reopening them gradually on June 17, 2026. Copilot Free is still the way to try it; GitHub lists no free trial of Pro, Pro+ or Max.

Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

Devin Desktop Teams is an $80/mo minimum plus $40 per full seat

Cognition's billing docs explain Teams as an $80 monthly minimum. Full seats cost $40/mo each and count toward it, and any shortfall becomes prepaid usage credits the team shares: 1 or 2 full seats are $80/mo, 3 are $120, and N seats are N x $40 from two seats up. Flex seats are free. Teams covers up to 200 users.

Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

Windsurf / Devin Desktop moved from prompt credits to quotas

In March 2026 Cognition replaced prompt credits with token-based daily and weekly quotas. Free waits for the reset; paid plans can buy extra usage at API list prices. Subscribers from before the switch keep their old prices: Pro at $15/mo and Teams at $30 per seat.

Took effect: Mar 2026

Firebase

Firebase Studio is shutting down

Firebase Studio stopped accepting new users and new workspaces on June 22, 2026 and shuts down on March 22, 2027, when remaining data is permanently deleted. Google points prompt-to-app builders to Google AI Studio and code-first developers to Google Antigravity. Firebase itself (Spark free, Blaze pay-as-you-go), Firestore, Authentication and App Hosting are unchanged.

Cursor

Cursor's $8 Plus plan now includes only Grok models

Cursor is now sold as part of The X Subscription, with one weekly usage pool shared with the Grok apps. Plus ($8/mo) runs only Cursor's own models (Grok 4.7, 4.6, 4.5 and Composer 2.5) at fixed settings, with no third-party models, cloud agents, Bugbot or your own API keys. Claude, GPT and Gemini need Premium ($30/mo) or higher and bill at API list price on top of the plan. Older Hobby, Pro ($20), Pro+ ($60) and Ultra plans keep working as legacy plans.

Cursor acquires Continue

Continue's homepage now says it has joined Cursor, and its last release shipped on June 19, 2026. The Apache-2.0 code stays on GitHub for anyone to fork, but Continue is no longer sold or actively developed as a product. We replaced it with Cline in our rankings.
