Market Intelligence
About Cursor
Cursor is a massive disruptor in the developer space. Instead of being an extension, it is a fork of VS Code built from the ground up to be AI-first. It features 'Cursor Composer', allowing developers to hit Cmd+K, type a natural language prompt, and have the AI autonomously write, edit, and orchestrate changes across multiple files simultaneously, leveraging elite models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet.

I have uninstalled VS Code. Cursor is the future of development. The Composer feature allows me to just type 'build a pricing page' and it edits 4 different files seamlessly to make it happen.
