Cursor

Software teams use Cursor to hand whole programming tasks to agents that write, run and test code, rather than just autocomplete a line. The product is made by Anysphere, Inc., and Cursor's own blog now says the company has been acquired by SpaceX.

Agents that build and test end to end

Cursor started as a desktop code editor and has grown into a set of agent tools around it. Its site describes agents that "use their own computers to build, test, and demo features end to end", running either locally or as cloud agents, including on machines a customer manages. Alongside the editor it offers a command-line tool, a mobile app, automations, Bugbot for automated code review and an Agent SDK announced in October 2026. Teams choose among models from several providers inside the product, with third-party model usage billed separately from the plan.

The editor runs VS Code extensions from Cursor's own extension marketplace. On 29 October 2026 Cursor reported that a tampered build of a popular coding extension had been listed there for about eleven hours, and published checks and remediation scripts for affected users.

Plans from free to enterprise contracts

Individual plans run from a free tier through paid monthly tiers that buy more usage. Teams costs from $30 per user per month and adds SAML or OIDC single sign-on, usage analytics and privacy settings. Enterprise is priced by contract and adds invoice billing, SCIM seat management, audit logs, service accounts, spend controls and controls over which repositories, models and MCP servers people may use.

Cursor says it holds AIUC-1, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certifications and a SOC 2 Type II attestation, runs third-party penetration tests at least once a year and has no infrastructure in China. In Privacy Mode, it says, it does not train on customer code. Its enterprise page claims use at 64% of Fortune 500 companies and more than 50,000 enterprises.
