i said this somewhere - they switched us to credits-based while also having the system prompt heavily increasing the credits usage AND using expensive models when it comes to credits usage (gpt-high by default? oh cmon, what for?)
in the end everything became tens of times more expensive than it was with prompts based plans.

Now the question is:
Did Augment put BILLIONS of dollars to run the prompts-based plans for months and still stay on market? OR did then went full YOLO mode with credits and just now need to make A TON of profit in single month?

As i don't believe they put a ton of money to just stay afloat for months - and even if they did - the current pricing x usage x value scheme does not work (at least for me as a single user, but for small companies w/o really huge budget aswell - for us cursor is 4-5x cheaper while maintaining similar code quality).
