The AI coding agent for building ambitious software
An agentic mode that plans changes, edits several files at once, runs tests, and iterates until the task is complete.
Background agents spin up their own environments to build, test, and demo features in parallel, then hand back results for review.
Fast inline suggestions plus codebase-wide semantic search and indexing so answers reflect your actual repository.
Switch between leading frontier models from multiple providers, or let Cursor select a model automatically for each task.
Build full-stack web apps by describing them
Describe your app in plain English and Softgen asks clarifying questions, drafts a development plan, and generates the full codebase.
Managed Supabase for database and user authentication, plus Stripe payments, are wired in with no code required.
Every project lives in a real GitHub repository you own, so you can branch, merge, and open it in Cursor or VS Code.
Choose from a large set of AI models, including leading Claude, GPT, and Gemini releases, rather than being locked to one.
