I've been using Cursor at my startup for a few months now. We inherited a messy codebase from a previous team, and honestly, the best feature isn't getting it to write new functions.
It's the `@`-select and "Explain this code" feature. I can highlight a convoluted, undocumented block of AWS SDK calls or some weird legacy logic, and Cursor breaks it down in plain English. It's like having a patient senior dev next to you, deciphering the "why" behind the mess.
This has saved us countless hours. Instead of rewriting things we don't understand, we can now make informed decisions about what to refactor and what to leave alone. For us, that's been the real cost-saver.
