R · What Makes It Special
Cursor, Anysphere's AI coding agent and editor, acquired by SpaceX in August 2026: agents plan, write and test code in the desktop app, run in parallel on their own cloud computers to build and demo features end to end, and also work from the terminal, in Slack and in GitHub pull-request reviews (Bugbot), using SpaceXSI's Grok models and those of other labs. Since October 2026 it is sold through The X Subscription, from a free tier to Ultra at $200 a month, with Teams from $30 per user.
