title: "Updates to Bugbot for Teams and Individuals"
description: "Bugbot is replacing its $40-per-seat monthly subscription with usage-based billing for Teams and Individual plans. Existing customers move to the new model at the first billing renewal after June 8, 2026; an annual subscription purchased in May 2026, for example, changes in May 2027, while earlier switching is available in the Cursor dashboard. Teams are billed from on-demand spend, Individuals from included usage, and an average run costs $1.00–$1.50 depending on pull request size and complexity. Usage billing also adds configurable effort levels, including deeper reviews and custom logic for selecting effort: the default retains an 80% bug-resolution rate by merge time, while high effort finds 35% more bugs in internal runs with that rate unchanged."

Teams are billed from on-demand spend, Individuals from included usage, and an average run costs $1.00–$1.50 depending on pull request size and complexity. Usage billing also adds configurable effort levels, including deeper reviews and custom logic for selecting effort: the default retains an 80% bug-resolution rate by merge time, while high effort finds 35% more bugs in internal runs with that rate unchanged.
