105 sats \ 4 replies \ @k00b OP 27 Aug 2025 \ on: By default cursor's bugbot bills $40 per unique open source contributor AI

I got an AI response (which is so well done I didn't realize it was AI at first):

Hi [k00b] - thanks for reaching out!

You're correct about how Bugbot billing works - it charges $40 per user who authors PRs that Bugbot reviews in a given month, including external contributors. I can see you've already found the access controls to manage this, which is great.

For managing costs going forward, you can:
  • Keep the current access restrictions you've set up
  • Set a maximum number of Bugbot seats per month through your team admin settings
  • Configure Bugbot to only run when explicitly mentioned (using 'cursor review' or 'bugbot run' comments)


I'll pass your feedback about open source pricing to our product team - it's a great point about public visibility and supporting the open source community.

Let me know if you need help with any of these settings!

Best,

Sam

Love that they did include that it's AI replying

Just being upfront goes a long way

It’s the least they could do. It’s the equivalent of “this email is sent from a send-only address and is not monitored”

Seems that it's not a no-reply address, maybe you can feed code into it and avoid paying lol

AI responses are getting more harder to detect, down the road we wouldn't take which is genuine and which isn't
