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.
Validate your startup idea with AI before you build
Submit a business concept and receive an AI-generated report on demand signals, target segments, competitor positioning and overall viability.
Covers the angle of your idea — competing products, differentiation gaps and where the market is crowded.
Flags assumptions that could break the business model, from pricing to distribution, so you can test them early.
Premium reports can be shared with co-founders, advisors or potential investors, making the output a communication asset rather than just notes.
