Cursor capitalizes on GitHub frustration, launches rival hosting platform

TechCrunch 1 week ago 49 5 sources

Cursor, an AI code editor startup now part of SpaceX AI, launched Origin, a new code hosting platform that competes with GitHub by offering repository management, pull requests, and collaborative coding features. Origin includes "agent native" AI capabilities and interoperates with GitHub, allowing developers to sync repositories between platforms. The launch comes as GitHub faces persistent reliability issues, including a 20% error rate during a six-hour outage on the same day Origin launched, though GitHub still hosts 180 million developers.
