Anysphere builds Cursor, an AI-native code editor forked from VS Code. The editor integrates frontier models (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Anysphere's own routing) into in-editor edits, full-codebase chat, agent-mode multi-file refactors, and a tab-completion model trained for code completion. The company crossed $100M in annualized revenue in 2024 and was reported by Bloomberg to be raising at a $2.5 billion valuation in early 2025.

Why this matters in 2026

Cursor became the fastest-growing developer tool company in 2024, hitting $100M ARR in 18 months. The product proved that thin application layers over Anthropic and OpenAI models can build durable businesses if the surface area (the IDE) carries the value.
