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.

AI-powered YouTube ideas, SEO scoring and coaching that grows your channel faster
Discover untapped keywords with real search volume and competition scores, and get AI suggestions tuned to your channel's niche and history.
Every hit for a video or channel is graded across titles, tags and thumbnails, with concrete fix-it suggestions you can apply before publishing.
A conversational YouTube strategist that analyses your channel, answers growth questions and builds tailored plans, with Max Mode for deeper strategy on the MAX plan.
Daily personalised video ideas, outlier detection to spot videos beating their channel's average, and trend research so you publish on topics actually gaining traction.
