Cursor
Cursor is your coding agent for building ambitious software.
Cursor is an AI coding agent from Anysphere that runs as a desktop app, a CLI, and inside Slack and GitHub. It has a Free plan, and paid plans start at $8 per month with Plus, which only includes Grok models. It is built for people who want to build apps or build websites by describing features to an agent.
What Cursor does
You describe a feature and Cursor's agent plans it and writes the code. Cloud agents go further: they run in parallel on their own computers to build, test and demo work while you do something else. The Cursor CLI brings the agent to the terminal, it also integrates with Slack, and on GitHub it reviews pull requests. Bugbot handles AI code reviews, and Origin provides code hosting.
Models can come from OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, SpaceXAI or Cursor's own Composer models, though third-party model usage is charged separately at API list price. Anysphere, the maker, is described on the site as now part of SpaceX, and paid plans bundle Grok and X features.
Individual plans are listed per month on the pricing page: Plus at $8 (Grok models only), Premium at $30 with 4x Plus usage plus cloud agents and automations, Super at $100 with 15x Plus usage, and Ultra at $200 with 50x Plus usage. Teams starts at $30 per user per month and adds centralized billing, SSO and usage analytics, plus a team marketplace for internal rules, skills and plugins. Enterprise pricing is custom. GitHub Copilot is the alternative listed for comparison.
