Anysphere (Cursor)/Cursor

Supermaven, maker of a fast context-aware code-completion tool founded by Tabnine creator Jacob Jackson, joined Cursor. The combined team planned a faster, smarter Tab model able to suggest longer sequences of edits. The Supermaven plugin would be maintained; the teams share the goal of better tools for professional programmers.
