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.
Free GLM-powered assistant that turns prompts into slides, sites and code
Describe your topic and Z.ai drafts a slide deck with structured layouts, headings and visual placeholders you can refine with follow-up prompts.
Paste a brief or a bug report and it will produce code in common languages, and it can scaffold functioning web pages and small full-stack apps.
Chat, brainstorming, rewriting, translation and summarising all run through the same prompt box, with GLM Flash models keeping responses quick.
Ask a question and it can ground the answer in web sources rather than relying only on its training data, useful for current facts and comparisons.
Provides industry-leading reasoning, coding, and multimodal features, but lacks dedicated automated slide and document generators.
