AI code editor that writes, edits and explains code across your project
San Francisco, US Founded 2023 201-500 employees
About
Cursor is a code editor with AI built in. It is made by Anysphere, a startup founded in 2022 by four MIT students and based in San Francisco. The editor launched in 2023. It is built on a fork of Visual Studio Code, so it supports most VS Code extensions and settings.
Cursor predicts the next edit as developers type and lets them change code by writing instructions in plain English. Its agent can read the whole codebase, edit many files, run commands in the terminal and fix errors. Users can pick from models made by OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and others, and Cursor also trains its own models.
There is a free Hobby plan with limits. Pro and higher plans give more agent use and faster responses. Teams and Enterprise plans add admin controls and privacy settings. Cursor is used by individual developers and by engineering teams at many large companies.
