General Partner, Y Combinator
"My favorite enterprise AI service is Cursor. Every one of our engineers, some 40,000, are now assisted by AI and our productivity has gone up incredibly."
Jensen Huang
President & CEO, NVIDIA
"The best LLM applications have an autonomy slider: you control how much independence to give the AI. In Cursor, you can do Tab completion, Cmd+K for targeted edits..."

Honest Review: Pros & Cons
Why Developers Love It
- It's a fork of VS Code: All your extensions, themes, and keybindings work out of the box instantly.
- Composer Feature: The ability to hit Cmd+I and have it generate or refactor multiple files simultaneously is unmatched.
- Codebase Context: It actually reads your entire repo, not just the open files, resulting in highly accurate code generation.
- Model Choice: Switch between Claude 3.5 Sonnet (arguably best for coding) and GPT-4o on the fly.
Limitations to Consider
- Cloud Dependency: By default, code context is sent to cloud models. (Privacy mode exists, but local models aren't the primary focus).
- Pricing Limits: The $20 Pro plan has limits on "fast" premium model requests (500/mo), falling back to slower queues afterward.
- Rapid Updates: Because it's evolving so fast, UI elements and features occasionally move or change behavior.
