Comment on Show HN: Windsurf – Agentic IDE

Comments

Any idea how Codeium is able to provide users with unlimited access to Sonnet and 4o for only $10 per month? I can easily blow through $10 in API credits from either of them. Is that price going to be sustainable?

Of course it's not going to be sustainable.

My idea: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predatory_pricing

In this shovel rush, even the shovel factory makers (OpenAI) are not sustainable, and the shovel factory factory makers (NVidia) are doing well. Ironically the "gold" is with all the boring companies on the consumer side of the AI.

+ I guess it's not really fully unlimited

I bet you provide your own API key to Sonnet and 4o and you're paying to use their IDE...?

Just like Uber, keep eating the free food till the VC money runs out.
