The vibe coding market is a large and growing source of revenue for AI model developers such as Anthropic PBC. The Cursor partnership gives SpaceX a bigger presence in that segment, which may help drive up investor interest in its upcoming public offering. SpaceX reportedly hopes to sell $75 billion worth of shares at a $1.75 billion valuation.

Partnering with Cursor could be a crucial step for Elon Musk to get ahead of AI rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic.

This move frees Cursor from reliance on Anthropic and OpenAI models, and tees up SpaceX for an even bigger IPO.

SpaceXAI and Cursor_ai are partners trying to catch up to Anthropic and Claude Code. XAI data center and hundreds of thousands of chips can power Cursor

After acquiring xAI, the rocket company says close work in coding partnership could lead to combination.

Elon Musk's xAI is collaborating with Cursor, which is using xAI's GPUs for model training, people with knowledge of the matter said.

SpaceX and AI company Cursor have struck a new partnership that could see the owner of X buy the AI company for $60 billion later this year.

AI is providing GPU infrastructure to Cursor for AI model training, supporting its Composer 2.5 coding models.

The rocket company says the deal would pair Cursor’s coding models with SpaceX’s Colossus supercomputer, raising questions for enterprise customers around model neutrality and data contracts.
