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.
Go from app idea to App Store submission, no code required.
Answer guided questions and x1 produces an interactive preview covering idea validation, a name and icon, a product plan, and generated screens you can open on your phone.
Apps are built as real React Native projects. Preview instantly with Expo Go, share a private beta through TestFlight, and move toward the Apple App Store.
x1 generates App Store screenshots, descriptions, and keyword sets, then walks you through the submission process so launch prep is not a separate project.
On any paid plan you can export the complete React Native source as a ZIP to keep, extend, or monetise outside the platform.

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.
