Cursor is now available as a native iOS app in public beta, so you can build from anywhere.
Until now, developers have worked around the limits of their local machines, keeping laptops half-open and caffeinated everywhere they go.
With Cursor for iOS, you can launch always-on agents in the cloud, or control agents running on your computer from your phone. Kick them off when ideas strike, get notified when work is ready for review, and merge PRs on the go.
Half the threads here are about accuracy and fewer iterations. One source of rework I rarely see named: when I paste a screenshot, Cursor has to guess which element on a busy screen I actually meant, and it edits the wrong one. Then I'm re-prompting, which is its own iteration tax.
Curious how much of your rework is this specific thing versus raw model quality. And what's your fix, crop hard, or describe the element in text?
I love @Cursor. It's enabled me to build (vibe code) so many web apps, sites, extensions, and little things quickly that 1. bring me joy and 2. help me with work or realize personal projects. However... I'm seeing a TON of movement around @Claude by Anthropic's Claude Code. I haven't personally tried it but it's apparently insane (and can also be expensive?) I'm curious. Should I switch? What are you currently using? Or do they both have their own use case. I right now like cursor because I can build directly in a GitHub repo or locally and it helps me learn my way around an IDE. Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts!
Just saw reports that SpaceX acquired Cursor in an all-stock deal valued at $60 billion.
This is one of the most insane startup outcomes we've ever seen:
Cursor was founded only ~4 years ago.
The reported price tag would make it one of the largest startup acquisitions in history.
It went from "just a VS Code wrapper" jokes to becoming the default AI coding tool for a huge number of developers.
SpaceX/xAI would instantly gain access to one of the most valuable datasets in AI: how millions of developers actually write, edit, debug, and ship code.
Cursor just dropped "Origin," a GitHub competitor.
Cursor is moving way beyond "VS Code with AI." They just teased Origin, a Git-compatible forge whose landing page describes it as a tool built for "the agentic era," with code "moving faster than any infrastructure was built to handle." It's currently waitlist-only.
Two big updates that make Cursor the best place to work with agents: our first coding model, Composer, and a new interface for working with many agents in parallel.
Also included in this release: browser for Agent, voice mode, improved code review, and more!
Has anyone been successfully talking to Cursor? I started using Superwhisper but having to copy-paste the generated transcription into Cursor is a chore. Looking for something that just works.
Last month, Cursor launched for the fifth time on Product Hunt in 2025.
The 2024 Product of the Year [1] still hits the charts. They have launched web and mobile agents, a visual editor, and 2.0, consistently ranking in the Top 5 Products of the Day.
