Cline Pass vs DevPass

Only looking at Cline Pass? Cline Pass pricing and limits → · Cline Pass alternatives →

Different weight classes. DevPass ($29-$179) is a general gateway: 200+ models including frontier ones, a 2x provider-rate multiple since Oct 15, 2026 (3x before), and Anthropic-format support for Claude Code. Cline Pass ($9.99) is a budget open-weight bundle scoped to Cline's ecosystem with an exportable key. If you need Claude/GPT/Gemini quality or run agents outside Cline, DevPass is the real tool; if open-weight models cover you and $10 is the budget, Pass is the cheaper seat.

Facts verified 2026-10-14
Cline Pass
$9.99/mo (intro promotion varies)
Models: 12 open-weight (GLM-5.3, Kimi K3, DeepSeek V4 Pro, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, Qwen3.8 Max, MiniMax M3…)
What "flat" means: Fixed price buying 2-5x the usage of standard API rates on a curated open-weight lineup, measured at Cline's reference prices against 5-hour, weekly and monthly limits whose size Cline does not publish.
The catch: Quotas stated as rate-limit multiples (2-5x), not dollar windows, so what you actually get is opaque; open-weight only; models get removed for capacity (four dropped so far); 'additional processing fee may apply'.
Pick Cline Pass when
+You already code in Cline (IDE extension, CLI or desktop app) and want zero provider setup
+You want the newest open-weight lineup (Kimi K3, Qwen3.8 Max, DeepSeek V4 Pro) behind one subscription
+The exportable API key covering other tools is a bonus, not the main event

DevPass
$29 / $79 / $179 per mo
Models: 200+ models via gateway
What "flat" means: Fixed price buying 2x its value in usage metered at provider rates (Lite about $58, Pro $158, Max $358 since Oct 15, 2026; 3x before).
The catch: A capped value multiplier with pacing caps: a rolling 24-hour cap (8 to 10% of the monthly allowance) and a weekly premium-model cap (10 to 15%). Since Oct 15, 2026, licensed for interactive coding-agent use only.
Pick DevPass when
+Your monthly usage is predictable and fits inside the 2x multiple
+You want to pin specific models across 200+ options, including Anthropic-format for Claude Code
+Provider-rate metering transparency matters to you

This comparison is maintained by Standard Compute. We sell a third thing entirely (flat-rate LLM compute with a fixed monthly budget, from $19/mo), so we have no horse in this particular race and keep both sides honest.
