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.
A personal site about getting started with AI-era tools
A running archive of articles about getting started with AI-era tools, from feedback hardware to hosted visual AI.
Points to a small stack of products Kai Fischer works on — ObjectSense, Tapsy, WeSolve and ROAD SYSTEM — with a note to verify details on their official sites.
Writing is organised by tags such as hardware, venues, logistics and metrics, and an RSS feed lets you follow new posts.
The site is upfront that it only links to tools the author finds genuinely useful and that official product pages are the source of truth.
