Developers use Cursor across the full range of software work, giving us a unique view into how AI is changing everyday development and what the most advanced users are doing first. Cursor Insights is where we share what we’re learning.
The productivity index
- AI edits / developer
- Median PR size
The Productivity Index shows how much software developers are building with Cursor. We track two measures of development activity: AI edits per developer and median PR size.
Each measure is indexed to 100 in the first week of January. AI edits per developer nearly tripled, and median PR size more than doubled — evidence that developers are shipping more, and larger, changes with AI in the loop.
