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.

The collaborative whiteboard built for product builders
AI Flowcharts, AI Mind Maps and AI Wireframes convert a short text prompt into structured, fully editable diagrams, branched mind maps, or web and mobile wireflows — no manual drawing required.
Boards host diagrams, flowcharts, mind maps, wireframes, embedded media and documents side by side, so a whole product narrative lives in a single shareable file.
Multiple teammates edit the same board simultaneously with live cursors, thread comments attached to specific objects, and mention-based notifications.
Drag-and-drop UI components let teams sketch screens, link them into clickable flows and iterate on product ideas before engineering commits to a build.

Provides powerful parallel AI coding agents via a desktop command center, but is less integrated into a traditional editor.
#2
SpecialistEnables instant cloud-based full-stack app building from natural language, but is less suited for local offline repositories.
#3
Free / Open-sourceOffers unmatched extension support and official Copilot integration, but lacks Cursor's out-of-the-box deep codebase indexing and agentic editing.

Features advanced multi-file planning and codebase reading, but lacks Cursor's smooth chat-to-edit inline workflows.
Focuses on spec-driven engineering and structured agent planning, but offers less fluid ad-hoc inline code generation than Cursor.
SpecialistOperates as a fully autonomous software engineer for complex tasks, but lacks the snappy interactive inline editing of Cursor.

Free / Open-sourceThe coding agent that learns your coding taste
Delivers a polished AI-native IDE experience with multi-file generation, but has a smaller ecosystem than Cursor.

SpecialistAI-powered terminal and agentic software factory for development teams
Free / Open-sourceCombines mind mapping and project workflows with AI agents, but less focused on pure visual diagramming and wireframes.
Robust collaborative whiteboard with strong AI diagramming tools, but less polished UI wireframing capabilities than Whimsical.
