KanBots vs Cursor
Cursor delivers one of the best in-editor agent experiences; KanBots is the shared board where agent work is assigned, traced, and reviewed — with local execution and your own provider keys instead of resold inference.
| Feature | KanBots | Cursor |
|---|---|---|
| Local-first agent runs in the team’s source tree (customer-controlled machines) | Yes | No |
| Team kanban as the primary surface (PMs see status without opening an editor) | Yes | No |
| Bring-your-own model keys; pay providers directly (no resold inference) | Yes | No |
| Highly polished in-editor agent and inline chat tied to the codebase | No | Yes |
| Bundled inference and unified vendor pricing for AI features | No | Yes |
