Cursor — The AI-Native IDE

AI-first code editor that replaces your workflow, not just your autocomplete.

Where the Magic Happens

Tab-to-accept multi-line edits across files; Composer mode spins up entire features from a prompt; @-mentioning files/docs creates genuine context awareness, not just RAG theater.

Where Friction Lives

Agent mode still hallucinates file paths on large repos; no native git integration for review/approval loops; pricing gates the best models (Claude 4, o3) behind $20/mo + usage.

PM Recommendation

Ship a 'review diff' mode where the agent proposes a PR you can accept/reject line-by-line. Bundle git natively. Make the $20 tier actually unlimited for solo devs — usage caps kill trust.
