The AI coding agent for building ambitious software
An agentic mode that plans changes, edits several files at once, runs tests, and iterates until the task is complete.
Background agents spin up their own environments to build, test, and demo features in parallel, then hand back results for review.
Fast inline suggestions plus codebase-wide semantic search and indexing so answers reflect your actual repository.
Switch between leading frontier models from multiple providers, or let Cursor select a model automatically for each task.

Real-time AI interview copilot that answers while you are still talking
Detects questions as they are spoken and displays suggested answers on screen during the call, with an auto-answer mode for hands-free use.
Low-latency transcription that turns the conversation into readable text almost immediately.
Understands technical questions and reads code shared on your screen, then talks through the solution approach with you.
Mock interviews with an AI interviewer, a role-tailored resume maker and AI headshots from a single photo.
