WEBVTT 00:01.920 --> 00:03.560 Let's also talk about pricing. 00:03.680 --> 00:10.080 In April 2025, windsurf has simplified their pricing model, which honestly used to be very, very 00:10.080 --> 00:10.840 confusing. 00:11.400 --> 00:16.720 Apart from this, they also announced a lot of updates to the free plan. 00:17.040 --> 00:19.680 And trust me, it's all good news. 00:19.800 --> 00:24.720 So let me briefly talk about the free plan, because this is something that interests a lot of people. 00:25.080 --> 00:30.480 Now, first of all, apart from the two week pro trial that you get with a new account, you're also 00:30.480 --> 00:33.360 going to get 25 credits per month. 00:34.240 --> 00:38.760 So this means that you can send 25 messages to one of the models. 00:39.080 --> 00:45.960 Now for some models, it can cost you a bit more than a prompt, and for some models it can cost you 00:45.960 --> 00:47.400 significantly less. 00:47.440 --> 00:54.200 The example here is gpt4 one from OpenAI, which you're going to get four prompts per credit. 00:54.320 --> 01:01.360 So if you use only this model, you essentially have 100 prompts per month, which is at least I would 01:01.360 --> 01:08.410 say decent With OpenAI acquiring wind surf, we will probably see even more preferential treatment for 01:08.410 --> 01:09.930 OpenAI's models. 01:10.730 --> 01:17.210 Apart from this, the free plan also gets access to all premium models, and in the past, that was 01:17.210 --> 01:18.570 definitely not the case. 01:19.170 --> 01:24.810 Apart from this, there's also an optional zero data retention for the free plan. 01:24.850 --> 01:29.170 So let me briefly show you what that means and how it works for a lot of products. 01:29.170 --> 01:35.890 The free plan obligates you to share some data, but windsurf has made this optional, so it is enabled 01:35.890 --> 01:37.810 by default, but you can disable it. 01:37.810 --> 01:40.170 I just want to briefly show you how you can do this. 01:40.490 --> 01:44.970 So we're going to go here to your profile page and you're going to go to settings. 01:45.730 --> 01:50.810 And in terms of privacy you're going to find here this privacy setting here. 01:51.090 --> 01:54.170 And what you need to do is to disable telemetry. 01:55.610 --> 01:59.210 So this actually needs to be enabled to be disabled. 01:59.210 --> 02:02.290 It's a bit weird but this is how you can do it. 02:02.290 --> 02:07.700 Anyway, going back to pricing, the last thing that I wanted to say about the free plan is that you 02:07.700 --> 02:10.980 can also have unlimited Cascade base. 02:10.980 --> 02:16.220 So Cascade Base is the not so great model that windsurf has. 02:16.540 --> 02:18.340 You can use this for free. 02:18.940 --> 02:25.500 So one strategy would be to use a premium model for complex stuff, and then to switch to Cascade Base 02:25.500 --> 02:31.380 for like maybe smaller changes that it can do on its own, or at least to give it a bit more chances 02:31.380 --> 02:32.460 to try it out. 02:33.140 --> 02:38.860 So in this way, you have unlimited cascade base, and you combine it with your 25 prompts. 02:38.980 --> 02:43.660 And actually you can get with a free plan to having a usable product. 02:44.220 --> 02:48.380 There's also unlimited completions, which is also nice. 02:48.580 --> 02:53.180 You get previews and you can do one app deployment per day. 02:53.220 --> 02:54.660 Well, that's not a lot. 02:55.180 --> 03:00.420 It's still decent and you can anyway do your deployments through other means as well. 03:00.420 --> 03:03.700 So you don't really need to rely on that deployment approach. 03:04.180 --> 03:08.080 I think one app deployment per day is not really that great if you want to do a few deployments. 03:08.080 --> 03:10.080 But anyway, this is the free plan. 03:10.680 --> 03:13.680 And then if you need more, you need to go to the Pro plan. 03:13.680 --> 03:22.920 This one has 500 prompt credits per month or equivalent of 2000 prompt credits if you use the OpenAI 03:23.080 --> 03:25.160 GPT for one model. 03:25.760 --> 03:31.320 Apart from this, there's also another additional features, which is very nice this possibility of 03:31.320 --> 03:32.520 buying credits. 03:33.000 --> 03:39.160 So once you run out of prompt credits, you can buy additional ones without having to upgrade your plan. 03:39.160 --> 03:41.840 Essentially this anyway for a single user. 03:41.880 --> 03:43.840 Not another way to upgrade. 03:43.840 --> 03:45.400 So I think that is nice. 03:46.280 --> 03:47.080 More to the right. 03:47.080 --> 03:50.320 We have plans for teams and for enterprise. 03:50.600 --> 03:52.480 We're not going to go into them very deep. 03:53.040 --> 03:58.160 The main idea is that if you're running a team or if you're a larger company, there are other things 03:58.160 --> 03:59.240 that you should consider. 03:59.240 --> 04:03.800 So definitely take a look at those plans to see if you find anything that works for you. 04:04.240 --> 04:06.840 So this is all in terms of pricing.
