A good fit for

  • Developers who want AI agentic coding built directly into their primary code editor
  • Individuals wanting to try AI-first coding for free before committing to a paid plan
  • Teams needing centralized billing, cloud agents and shared usage across the organization
  • Developers who want a single editor combining features that used to require separate tools like Supermaven or Continue

Not a good fit for

  • Developers who don't want to switch their primary code editor
  • Teams wanting the very lowest-cost AI coding option, since Individual and Teams pricing is mid-tier compared to some alternatives
  • Anyone specifically wanting to keep using Continue, which Cursor acquired and then shut down

About Cursor 3

Cursor is a code editor built as a fork of VS Code, with AI features integrated throughout: multi-file agentic coding, chat, inline edits and a composer mode for larger changes, aimed at developers who want AI woven into their primary editor rather than a separate tool.

The company behind Cursor, Anysphere, has grown the product through a series of acquisitions, including Supermaven (an AI autocomplete tool), Graphite (a code review tool) and Continue (an open source AI coding assistant that was subsequently shut down), consolidating capabilities into the Cursor platform.

Pricing scales from a free Hobby tier through Individual and Teams subscriptions to custom Enterprise plans, with higher tiers unlocking expanded agent request limits, frontier model access and team collaboration features like centralized billing and cloud agents.
