Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Anthropic account to use Claude in Cursor?

What does Claude Sonnet 4.5 cost in Cursor?
$3 / M input · $15 / M output — the same metered price as any other route to the model. Set a per-key budget cap to bound what the tool can spend.
Can I switch models later without touching Cursor again?
Yes — the endpoint stays the same; the model is a string. Any catalog id works in the same configuration, including cheaper tiers for bulk work.
