Cursor Rolls Out 2.0 With Composer AI Model, Voice Coding, and Enhanced Agent Tools

October 29, 2025

Details

  • Cursor 2.0 launches Composer, the company’s proprietary coding language model that solves programming tasks in under 30 seconds.
  • The VS Code-based IDE now includes autonomous agents that can write, run, and test code directly in a built-in browser, streamlining workflows within the editor.
  • A new panel allows developers to send identical prompts to Composer, GPT-4, Claude, and other APIs for easy side-by-side comparison.
  • Voice Mode enables natural-language speech to be converted into executable code, enhancing hands-free prototyping and accessibility.
  • Composer is trained on billions of permissively licensed tokens, supports 64 k-token contexts, and streams patch-style diffs instead of entire files.
  • Version 2.0 is available to paying users from 29 Oct 2025, with free plans getting a limited daily quota for Composer. Pricing remains unchanged, and a private preview of self-hosted enterprise deployments begins.

Impact

By launching its own coding model, Cursor reduces dependency on OpenAI, allowing it to compete more directly with leaders like GitHub Copilot and other coding assistants. The update’s rapid code generation and autonomous agents position Cursor alongside innovative AI startups, escalating competition in the AI-for-code landscape. Its focus on legal compliance and new revenue streams could further attract enterprise interest and shape future investment.
