The AI coding agent that turns ideas into shipped software
Hand off a task in plain language and agents plan it, edit across multiple files, run commands, and report back what changed.
Launch several agents at once in hosted environments so long-running work continues in the background while you focus elsewhere.
Choose between models from multiple leading providers per task, balancing reasoning depth, speed, and cost as needed.
Cursor runs as a desktop IDE, in the terminal via CLI, and inside Slack and GitHub so agents review pull requests in existing workflows.

An AI memory layer that resurfaces your research when it matters
Capture web pages, PDFs, videos, reports and LLM chats while you browse, then annotate them with your own notes and context.
Instead of waiting for a search, Liminary surfaces the relevant saved material while you write and inside meetings.
A meeting companion that pulls in the right information at the right moment, then saves the summary, full transcript and your notes for later recall.
Every answer points back to where it came from, internal or external, so you can verify claims rather than trust a black box.
