I'm baffled, my $20 is enough for me to do some consulting, personal projects and side work, and still cannot outran my quotas, I'm building different kind of things: flutter apps, dotnet backend, database, front end, architecture diagrams, code exploration, tests, PowerShell scripts.

How people spend more than 200 usd monthly is beyond my understanding, are you guys so inefficient with the usage? or I am the opposite?

Without any context for what you're working on, I'd have to assume the reason you don't hit the $20 subscription limit is that you're either not using it very often, or you're working on some relatively basic CRUD app that doesn't require it to think very deeply.

I tear through my $200 subscription because I often have 3-4 agents running simultaneously, exploring performance optimizations, building features, monitoring production rollouts, or investigating production problems/customer issues in parallel.

The downside is that I do spend most of my time reading the agent's output these days.

I think I do quite the same as you, complex features, not anything basic.

Well, it works for you.
