Professional developers who want an AI-first editor can start on the free Hobby plan, though agent-heavy work pushes you onto $20 or more.

Kenning's take

What it does

Cursor is a code editor, originally forked from VS Code, where AI agents write and edit code, run commands and open pull requests. It offers its own Composer models alongside models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and xAI, and agents can run locally or in cloud machines. It also has a command-line tool, a web agents page, an iOS app and an automated code reviewer called Bugbot.

  • Agents that edit code and run terminal commands
  • Cloud agents running in isolated virtual machines
  • Choice of in-house and third-party models
  • Tab autocomplete
  • Bugbot code review
  • CLI, web and iOS access

Who it suits. Professional developers and engineering teams who want an AI-first editor.
