WordPress, Android, SEO and the business of getting online — written from production, not theory.
Both write solid code. Pick ChatGPT for broad chat habits, Claude for long docs, and either in an editor for repo work.
ChatGPT chats. Editors read your repo. Pick the right tool for paste work versus workspace edits.
Skip Cursor when policy locks you to stock VS Code, when Hobby limits block you but budget is zero, or when a simple Copilot…
Cursor’s free path centers on Hobby; student discounts exist too—confirm any time-boxed Pro trial on Cursor’s site before you rely on it.
Solo devs should install Cursor, add tight rules, live on Tab plus scoped Agent, and pick Hobby, Start ₹649, or Pro from real usage.
Cursor is an AI IDE; Claude is a model family you may use inside Cursor on Other Models—or via Claude-centric tools separately.
Cursor Start in India includes only Grok 4.6, Grok 4.5, and Composer 2.5—no Other Models, no Fast mode, no effort changes.
Composer 2.5 helps with multi-file drafting inside Cursor’s model pool—available on Start, with broader models on Pro and above.
Cloud Agents are part of Cursor’s paid-plan capabilities with extended agent limits—confirm availability on Pro and above.
Use the Cursor CLI to authenticate and drive agent-oriented workflows from the terminal under the same plan limits as the IDE.
