What customers say

“Cursor quickly grew from hundreds to thousands of extremely enthusiastic Stripe employees. We spend more on R&D and software creation than any other undertaking, and there's significant economic outcomes when making that process more efficient.”

“The best LLM applications have an autonomy slider: you control how much independence to give the AI. In Cursor, you can do Cmd+K for targeted edits, or let it rip with the full autonomy agentic version.”

Latest updates from Cursor

New feature

Cursor Launches Intelligent Model Router

Cursor launched Cursor Router, an intelligent model routing system for enterprise and team plans. The feature automatically directs coding requests to the optimal AI model based on query task complexity, domain, and context. By dynamically assigning requests rather than using a single model, the company reports that customers can achieve frontier-level performance at significantly lower costs. Cursor Router is currently available across Cursor's desktop, web, iOS, CLI, and SDK platforms, with modes including Intelligence, Balance, and Cost to allow teams to manage their own cost-performance trade-offs.

Launch of Cursor Router for Intelligent Model Routing

Cursor has launched Cursor Router, an intelligent model classification system for Teams and Enterprise plans. The router analyzes incoming requests and dynamically routes them to the most appropriate AI model based on task complexity, context, and domain. It offers three optimization modes—Intelligence, Balance, and Cost—allowing users to balance performance versus token usage. Administrators can manage router availability, set default modes, and configure model allow/block lists per team or group. Testing indicates that the router can reduce costs by 30-50% while maintaining or improving task performance compared to using single-model configurations.

New feature

Enhanced Cursor Integration for Slack

Cursor introduced functional improvements to its Slack integration, enabling agents to operate across multi-repo environments and interact with multiple Slack channels and threads. The update includes a new planning step where the agent provides a roadmap before commencing work, updated status reporting throughout task progression, and refined UI elements for better readability. These changes allow users to better manage complex, multi-repository tasks directly from within Slack.

Update 3.11 Introduces Side Chats and Agent Conversation Search

Cursor released update 3.11, introducing 'Side Chats' which allow users to open secondary, persistent agent conversations alongside the main chat. The release also adds local search indexing for agent transcripts, allowing users to search through thousands of past conversations. The project and repository pickers were redesigned for improved scoping and integration with external platforms like GitHub and GitLab directly within the interface. Additionally, new hooks for Cloud Agents were added to support observability and control over agent behaviors including prompt, response, and subagent management.
