Engineering teams on Cursor Teams or Enterprise who want to cut model spend; individual plans don't get it yet.
Kenning's take
What it does
Cursor Router sits behind Cursor's Auto setting and classifies each agent request before choosing a model, sending simple work to cheaper models and hard work to frontier ones. Teams pick a Cost, Balance or Intelligence mode. Cursor says early enterprise users saw about 30 to 50 percent lower costs.
- Classifies each request before a model runs
- Cost, Balance and Intelligence modes
