Windsurf drops credit-based pricing for "industry standard" quotas; users revolt

Pricing token consumption is hard.

People hate change.

Replacing an intuitive pricing model with a less precise one makes people mad.

But that's what Windsurf has done:

What's changing:

• No more credits. Your Free, Pro, or Teams plan includes a usage allowance that refreshes automatically on a daily and weekly basis. For the majority of users, this quota will be enough to fully cover all agent usage.

• For paid plans, if you go beyond your included usage, you can purchase extra usage which will be consumed at API pricing.

What's not changing:

• The majority of Pro and Teams users will see no change in what they can do day-to-day. We've set the included usage to cover normal workflows comfortably.

• Enterprise customers will continue to follow existing billing agreements.

If you're a Windsurf user, what's your take?
