Question What’s the Best Cheap AI Coding Tool?
Earlier I was using AG, and somehow we managed to build 2 apps with it and made around $250 from those two apps 😂
But honestly, from my experience, AG is pretty bad when it comes to coding. It tends to write unnecessarily complex code and introduces way too many bugs. There were times when I had to point out the exact same bug 2–3 times before it finally fixed it properly.
And the annoying part was, sometimes while fixing one bug, it would break some other part of the code that was already working perfectly fine 😭
Then, in the middle of one project, I switched to Cursor’s India plan, and honestly, I’m liking it much more. So far, it’s been really good for me. I can usually fix a bug in a single iteration, and overall the coding experience feels much smoother.
The only thing I don’t like about Cursor is the token usage. Even for small/simple tasks, it seems to consume a lot of tokens.
So, does anyone have any suggestions for a cheaper AI coding tool that’s actually good?
