- Cursor launched Cursor Start, a ~$7/month subscription exclusive to India, priced well below its standard $20/month Pro tier
- India is Cursor's third-largest market, and the localized tier launches weeks before the AI coding startup's expected acquisition by SpaceX is set to close
Why it matters: Cursor is offering its India users access at roughly one-third the price of its $20 Pro plan, expanding a market that already ranks as its third-largest. The tier launches in the window just before an expected SpaceX acquisition closes, meaning any subscriber growth captured here lands on the deal's books.
