Cursor is reportedly developing a general-purpose AI agent called Sand, targeting office workers in finance, HR, operations, and marketing, moving beyond its core software developer audience. According to The Information, Sand is designed to handle tasks such as responding to emails and texts, organising spreadsheets, managing documents, and assisting with engineering work. The product has reportedly been tested internally since late June, but Cursor has not announced a public launch date or confirmed whether Sand will be released. The report comes as competition increases: Anthropic expanded Claude Cowork to mobile and web on July 7, and on July 9, OpenAI launched ChatGPT Work, an AI agent powered by GPT-5.6. Cursor’s possible advantage includes its existing developer tool infrastructure and integrations through the Model Context Protocol, an open standard introduced by Anthropic in 2024. Sand’s future is also tied to SpaceX’s planned acquisition of Anysphere, Cursor’s parent company, for $60 billion in an all-stock deal, expected to close in the third quarter of 2026. Reuters reported that Cursor began leasing compute from SpaceXAI in April, and Sand’s roadmap could be affected by the pending merger.
