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 private, memory-powered AI assistant you own and customize
A custom-built memory system that retains you, your people, preferences and work across every conversation, rather than resetting each session.
Connect Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, your filesystem and community plugins so the assistant can send emails, manage calendars, browse, create slides and run research.
Set permissions so sensitive actions like emailing new contacts or modifying key files require approval until you mark them trusted.
Switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini or open-weight models via Ollama at any time, keeping you free of a single vendor lock-in.
