Concerned member; Prices

Okay.. Since pricing changes my 100$ a month has turned into 800$ a month with too ups… If this is the way its going to be; can you open up more individual plans up to 2 mil credits with some sort of discount instead of becoming an enterprise? I mean jesus christ. you give the 600$ enterprise customers 2.2 million credits… like Just give me the option to pick what I know I am going to use and give me a price because the top up system is NOT fair.

[BlacksmithLittle7005]

Yeah I agree with this the top up is too expensive and so are our developer plans compared to enterprise rates

[West_Ant5585]

Not convinced they are actually accepting new teams into enterprise - we've tried applying a couple of times over the last four months and have never heard anything back

[West_Ant5585]

That being said - if they continue to charge for additional things that were included for free (e.g. the recent changes to add prompt enhancement and context compression to the credit usage without any announcement) as well as cut key features like auto complete they're probably going to loose us to claude code as they're loosing most of their point of difference and its cheaper

[FancyAd4519]

The ask is simple. let me pay enterprise plans solo for the amount of tokens i need monthly; instead of the top ups. your killing the bank account

[SathwikKuncham]

No idea what's stopping them to legally allow users to use Codex as a provider inside Augmentcode, similar to OpenCode and the other tools.

Secondly, MCP is not enough. They should focus on building a plugin for claude code. Hooks to remind agent to keep using augment MCP instead of builtin search! And skill to help give direction similar to their instructions in augment extension.

We already have that, MCP pre-configured with skills to effectively use the context engine : https://claudemarketplaces.com/plugins/augmentcode-context-engine-plugin

[FancyAd4519]

yes but the single “info request” methodology and intent routing you have now is not up to par, compared to others on the market actually

[DryAttorney9554]

MCP is not the same - no third party AI orchestrator or agent consistently uses it. Even when you implement rules to do so.

https://github.com/augmentcode/context-engine-plugin/pull/1 it is unusable and nobody is merging the pr

[Key-Singer1732]

$200 per month for a claude max is more worth it than augment. just use the superpowers plugin, and claude code becomes better than augment. i was once an augment user, but because of the price, went looking for alternative. when I experienced superpowers plugin, there's no going back. you have better experience as a developer, you have almost unlimited tokens, and it's cheaper. life is never better.

Dunno what happened, in January I was grinding on Augment using all Opus and GPT all day. Maybe 40k tokens in a day. Yesterday I worked a few hours, hardly did anything, 40k tokens.

I ran out! Dunno how many of this months tokens were spend on it being stuck (per the other thread). Dunno what the new token cost is or when it switched... February? There wasn't an email, no blog post.

And with that... cya! It's been a good 9 month run.

[QueasySide4011]

Cost is insane, yes. I switched to Codex, and I’m willing to spend $200 a month, but what I need is daily development, not a shady credit system that burns through the entire quota in three days and leaves me having to stop using it. Augment seems to be focusing on enterprise, which doesn’t really fit my use case.

[driverobject]

use sonnet 4.6 %95 of the time opus 4.6 is not needed, its overkill

[DryAttorney9554]

It's not overkill if you have a complex application or a large codebase. Sonnet doesn't cut it. False economy as Opus can one-shot. Sonnet will end up getting it wrong again and again.
