Cursor

Last reviewed: 2026-05-23

Our take

Cursor is the right pick for engineers who live in a code editor. We use Cursor for the IDE-side of building gtmpod (component edits, type fixes) and Claude Code for the orchestration side (scraping, deploying). They're complementary not competitive. For pure RevOps automation tasks, Claude Code wins. For polishing UI code, Cursor wins.

Who it's for: Software engineers in any role. SE teams. RevOps with engineering chops.
