Cursor
TOP FEATURES · 12
F01
AgentaiRuns complete coding tasks end-to-end on dedicated virtual machines, from planning through pull request, without developer supervision at each step. Cursor Automations (March 2026) extends this into always-on operation, firing agents automatically on GitHub PRs, Slack messages, PagerDuty alerts, cron schedules, and custom webhooks. Cursor 3 adds Agents Window for parallel agent management and Canvases for interactive dashboards within the agent pane.
F02
Tab AutocompleteaiPredicts next edits across multiple lines and files based on recent code changes and cursor position. Suggests structural rewrites and multi-line completions, not just single-line fills. Tab accepts suggestions; suggestions update as the developer types.
F03
Codebase UnderstandingsearchIndexes the full project with an embedding model, giving Agent and Cmd+K accurate recall across large codebases. Resolves natural language questions to specific files, functions, and patterns without manual path input.
F04
Multi-Model AccesssettingsSwitch between frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and xAI on a per-task basis. Auto mode selects the most cost-efficient model without touching the usage credit pool. Pro+ and Ultra multiply usage allowances 3x and 20x respectively.
F05
Scoped Edits (Cmd+K)editingApply targeted code edits or terminal commands using natural language on a highlighted block or specific files. Each change is previewed as a diff; developers accept, reject, or partially apply it without affecting the rest of the codebase.
F06
IDE (VS Code Fork)apiFull development environment built on VS Code with complete extension, theme, and keybinding support. All AI features are integrated directly into the IDE without a plugin layer. Existing VS Code setups migrate in one click.

TOP FEATURES · 8
F01
AI App and Agent GenerationaiDescribe what you want to build and v0 generates working full-stack applications, including agents that plan tasks, connect to databases, and integrate APIs autonomously. Supports web apps, landing pages, dashboards, components, mobile sites, and more from a single prompt.
F02
GitHub SyncapiConnect v0 directly to a GitHub repository and push generated code straight to your codebase. Changes made in v0 are committed automatically, enabling a continuous workflow between AI generation and version-controlled development.
F03
One-Click Vercel DeploymentcloudDeploy generated apps to Vercel's production infrastructure in seconds from within v0. No separate CI/CD setup required, apps go live instantly with Vercel's global edge network.
F04
Design ModeeditingFine-tune generated UIs with visual controls and a live preview, without modifying code directly. Edit colours, typography, spacing, and layout visually and see changes reflected in the underlying component code in real time.
F05
Templates and Design SystemstemplateStart from a library of ready-made components and full-page templates across categories including apps, landing pages, dashboards, and games. Create and apply custom design systems, defining colours, typography, and styles, for consistent output across projects.
F06
Agentic Workflowautomationv0 plans tasks, connects to databases, and integrates external services autonomously as it builds. The agent handles multi-step workflows, setting up schemas, wiring API connections, and structuring the codebase, without requiring step-by-step user instruction.
WHO IT'S FOR
Who each tool is built for
Use cases and fit tags from each tool's own positioning. Match these to your context, not their marketing.
enterpriseEngineering teams assign feature tasks to Cloud Agents, which run on dedicated VMs to build, test, and demo complete implementations for developer review. Agents explore codebases, execute search and test steps, and return pull requests without requiring developer direction at each stage.
enterpriseTeams configure Automations to run agents automatically on GitHub PR opens, Slack events, PagerDuty incidents, cron schedules, or custom webhooks. Rippling engineers use cron-triggered agents to collect notes, action items, and GitHub PRs into daily Slack dashboards. PagerDuty-triggered automations investigate logs, review recent code changes, and post proposed fix PRs to the on-call channel.
enterpriseTeams connect Bugbot to GitHub to get automated code review on every pull request. Bugbot identifies logic bugs, incorrect function calls, and type mismatches with line-by-line annotations. Developers apply one-click fixes from the PR interface without leaving GitHub.
Developers and engineering teamsGenerate production-quality React components, full-page layouts, and complete full-stack applications from text prompts, then refine them with Design Mode's visual controls. GitHub sync means generated code flows directly into existing repositories without manual copy-paste. Native Vercel deployment means prototypes become live URLs in seconds, enabling rapid iteration and stakeholder review without leaving the development workflow.
