 Coming from Windsurf? Read the [name change and migration guide](/blog/traeide-windsurf) before comparing new subscription prices with your existing plan.

## Suitable workflows

Existing Windsurf users and developers coordinating several agents from one surface.

## Limitations and billing

Check the migration FAQ for your existing plan; legacy entitlements can differ from new subscriptions.

## Capabilities we verified

Agent workflow · MCP · Cloud agents · Parallel agents

This is an evidence-based shortlist, not an exhaustive feature inventory. Omitted capabilities have not been checked for this record.

## Pricing & usage

**Paid from $20/mo**

Subscription + plan-dependent usage. The cost of metered usage or an external agent can be separate from the subscription.

## Models & access

Agent selection and model selection are different. Consult the provider for the chosen agent.

## Project evaluation checklist

1. Open a small, familiar project and confirm that your essential language tooling works.
2. Give the agent one bounded change with an observable acceptance criterion.
3. Review the diff, run the project’s checks and compare the result with your current workflow.
4. Inspect usage after the task. Estimate a month of similar work, including any separate model or agent bill.
