Cursor Secures $2.3 Billion Series D, Valued at $29.3 Billion

The new financing backs Cursor’s push to scale its Composer model to reduce reliance on third‑party AI.

Overview

  • Accel and Coatue led the round, with participation from Thrive Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, DST Global, Nvidia and Google.
  • Cursor reports surpassing $1 billion in annualized revenue and growing to more than 300 employees.
  • The company plans to direct the new capital toward advancing Composer, its in‑house coding model launched in October.
  • Cursor currently relies on models from Google, OpenAI and Anthropic, with Composer expected to take on more of that workload over time.
  • The valuation nearly triples its June mark as competition in AI coding heats up, and Forbes estimates each cofounder now holds a stake worth over $1 billion.
