Anysphere’s Cursor: Redefining Coding with AI
In a recent episode of How to Build the Future, Michael Truell, CEO of Anysphere, dropped some serious insights about the future of software development. His company’s AI-powered coding platform, Cursor, has skyrocketed to a $9 billion valuation and $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) in just 20 months. That’s the kind of hustle we’re here for!
Truell’s vision is bold: replace the grind of writing millions of lines of code with a higher-level, more productive way to build software. Imagine describing your app idea, and poof—the code materializes. As he puts it:
“The goal with the company is to replace coding with something that's much better... We think that over the next 5 to 10 years it will be possible to invent a new way to build software that's higher level and more productive.”
Cursor already writes 40-50% of developers’ code using AI, acting as both a human-like assistant (think real-time suggestions) and an advanced compiler (turning high-level ideas into executable code).
“The vibe coding style of things is definitely not something that we recommend if you're going to have the code stay around for a really long time.”
This balance of AI speed and developer control is why Cursor is a favorite among pro coders—and a sign of where the industry’s headed.
Why This Matters for You
Whether you’re a founder, developer, or hustler, tools like Cursor are part of a bigger trend:
