Sweet vs Cursor
Different jobs. Cursor is an AI-enhanced editor — it helps you write code with autocomplete and chat. Sweet is an autonomous agent — it takes a goal and ships the change while you're away.
| Cursor | Sweet | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it lives | In your editor | In your terminal + web app |
| What it does | Autocomplete + inline edits as you type | Whole tasks: plan → code → test → PR |
| Needs you at the keyboard | Yes | No |
| Runs when you're away | No | Yes |
| Price | ~$20/mo | Free; Team $1,000/mo |
When to use which
Keep Cursor for interactive coding. Add Sweet for the backlog you never get to — they sit side by side.
