Were an AI research company that builds reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. Our first product is Claude, an AI assistant for tasks at any scale.

Were Anysphere, the team behind Cursor. Our mission is to automate coding. Our approach is to build the engineer of the future: a human-AI programmer thats an order of magnitude more effective than any one programmer. This hybrid engineer will have effortless control over their codebase and no low-entropy keystrokes. They will iterate at the speed of their judgment, even in the most complex systems. Using a combination of AI and human ingenuity, they will out-smart and out-engineer the best pure-AI system. We are a group of researchers and engineers. We build software and models to invent at the edge of whats useful and whats possible. Cursor has already improved the lives of millions of programmers.
