Cursor, the AI coding assistant, announced it has acquired Graphite, a startup that uses artificial intelligence to review and debug code. While the deal terms were not disclosed, reports indicate Cursor paid well above Graphite's last $290 million valuation. The acquisition adds Graphite's "stacked pull request" technology to Cursor's Bugbot product, aiming to streamline the transition from AI‑generated code to production. The move reflects a broader trend of AI tools targeting the code‑review market, with competitors like CodeRabbit and Greptile also raising sizable funding. Shared investors such as Accel and Andreessen Horowitz link the two companies, and the deal follows Cursor’s recent spree of acquisitions, including Growth by Design and talent from Koala. Ler mais
