Cursor

Built to make you extraordinarily productive, Cursor is the best way to build software with AI

Cursor is an AI coding agent for developers who want to hand off programming tasks and build software faster. Described on its site as a coding agent for ambitious software, it turns ideas into code and lets you delegate work to agents rather than typing every line yourself.

The product spans several surfaces: a desktop editor available for download on macOS, a CLI, cloud agents, a mobile option, automations, and a code review tool. A Mission Control interface shows agents working across tasks, from generating a plan to marking work ready for review, and the site lists research on secure codebase indexing, semantic search, shadow workspaces, and multi-agent collaboration behind the product. The team frames itself as researchers, engineers, and technologists exploring what is useful and possible in software creation. Within the coding and development category, it targets teams building production software.

Cursor lists a pricing page and an enterprise offering with a demo request, but the site does not state plan details, so the pricing model is unclear. Download the macOS app or try the CLI and give an agent a small task to see how the workflow feels.
