Setup

Import your VS Code settings in one click. Everything just works, including extensions.

The agent

Cursor’s agent mode reliably ships multi-file changes. It’s not magic — you still review — but the throughput is real.

Cost

At $20/mo per seat, it pays for itself the first day a senior dev uses it seriously.

Verdict

If you write code for a living in 2026, you should be using Cursor or something like it.
