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.
Open-source workspace to build, deploy and govern AI agents
Create agents by describing them in Chat, arranging blocks on a visual canvas, or writing code and CLI commands, and deploy the result without rebuilding it.
Sync and auto-update documents from Notion, Google Drive, Confluence, Slack, GitHub and SharePoint so agents ground answers in current company knowledge.
Agents read and write structured data in Sim Tables and keep files and artifacts organized in one shared store across runs.
Trace every agent run block by block with success rate, latency, execution cost and failure details for debugging and reporting.
