A Coding Plan is a subscription that gives developers access to AI models in tools such as Claude Code, Cursor and Cline. Plans use rolling quotas, weekly credits, monthly tokens or credits instead of simple pay-per-token billing.
Most plans support Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Roo Code, Kilo Code, OpenCode, OpenClaw and ZCode. Exact integrations vary by provider.
Older plans used a rolling 5-hour window. The new GLM Coding Plan now uses weekly Credits that refresh every 7 days. Other providers (Kimi Code, MiniMax M2.7) still enforce a 5-hour window.
A single developer prompt may trigger 5 to 30 model calls for planning, search, tool use, generation and validation. Providers count this activity differently.
For budget-conscious developers, GLM Lite at $18/month or MiniMax Plus at $49/month (~$8 annual equivalent) are excellent entry points. For heavy usage, MiniMax Max or GLM Pro offer strong value. Claude Code Pro at $20/month remains the gold standard for model quality with Claude Opus 4.7.
GLM Coding Plan now charges Lite $18/mo ($12.6/mo yearly), Pro $80/mo ($56/mo yearly), Max $168/mo ($117.6/mo yearly). Quarterly billing gives a 20% discount and yearly billing 30% off. Lite ships with 10,000 weekly Credits, Pro is 6× Lite and Max is 14× Lite.
Kimi launched the K3 flagship (2.8T parameters, released 2026/7/17) and expanded the plan from 3 to 5 tiers: Adagio free, Andante ¥49, Moderato ¥99 (K3 unlocked), Allegretto ¥199 (K3 + 4 cluster subtasks), Allegro ¥699 (K3 with 1M-token conversations).
Refund policies vary. Most activated subscriptions are non-refundable, so start with a lower tier and check renewal terms before purchase.
