On July 31, 2026, Cursor users noted the Usage page had swapped the familiar dollar ($$) view for a token‑only display. Frequent users like Kaleb Maul and Eli Smith rely on daily spending graphs to monitor budgets, so the change felt abrupt and opaque.

The company confirmed the shift: self‑serve plans—including Teams—now show token counts for included usage, with on‑demand rows still bearing a dollar figure in the Cost column. However, the dashboard’s CSV export no longer includes dollar amounts, leaving many users unable to audit per‑request costs.

Kevin Neilson explained the rationale: enterprise plans use pooled usage, while individual and Teams plans have a flat, included token allowance. Displaying higher dollar figures caused confusion, so the team opted for a token‑centric view. Admins can still access spend data via Dashboard > Members > On‑Demand.

Critics such as JPPIX4D and Kris Gunnars argue that removing dollar breakdowns erodes transparency, especially for teams tracking per‑user or per‑model spend. The firm promises the API still returns cost data for admins, but the public dashboard remains token‑focused.
