Cursor, an AI-powered code editor, has upgraded its domain from Cursor.sh to the Exact Brand Match (EBM) domain Cursor.com. Thanks to Mike Carson for sharing this domain acquisition.
Cursor simplifies development and boosts productivity with advanced autocompletion and predictive coding features, including multi-line edits, smart rewrites, and cursor prediction.
Anysphere, the company behind Cursor, was co-founded in 2022 by Michael Truell, Sualeh Asif, Arvid Lunnemark, and Aman Sanger while they were students at MIT. In December 2024, Anysphere raised a $100 million Series B round at a post-money valuation of $2.6 billion. The round was led by returning investor Thrive Capital, with Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) also participating, though a16z did not serve as a co-lead this time. This milestone comes just four months after securing $60 million in Series A funding, valuing the company at $400 million.
Something beautiful is happening to code. It can be difficult to discern amidst a flurry of demos, headlines, and waitlists, but AI is changing coding, and it’s changing it today. Little by little, the molasses that characterizes building and changing software is being replaced by lightness and control. Our aim with Cursor is to continue to lead this shift, by building a magical tool that will one day write all the world’s software.
Cursor
Cursor initially operates on Cursor.sh, the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, Ascension, and Tristan da Cunha. Country-specific domain extensions often lack the universal recognition of a .com, limiting visibility and creating barriers for international users.
By investing in Cursor.com, Cursor mitigates these challenges, ensuring broader brand consistency and improved accessibility worldwide. A .com domain is more intuitive for most internet users and strengthens trust and recognition, making marketing efforts more effective across all channels.
Dictionary word .com domains hold significant value due to their global recognisability, memorability, and ability to convey authority.
