The AI-native coding platform helps engineers and less technical builders ship quality code through agents. Two years ago, Cursor was just 15 people in a room. Now it's 700, serving over 60% of Fortune 500 companies. Cursor has worked with Anthropic for most of that run, and the two have grown alongside each other, each pushing the other forward.
