SpaceX to acquire the AI coding startup Cursor for $60 billion

SpaceX on Tuesday announced it entered a formal agreement to buy the artificial intelligence startup Cursor for $60 billion worth of stock, a hotly anticipated deal. The announcement comes just days after Elon Musk’s rocket-maker debuted on the Nasdaq in the biggest initial public offering ever. Cursor built a popular AI coding tool that helps software developers generate, edit and review code, and the company has experienced explosive growth since its founding in 2022. In November, Cursor said it crossed $1 billion in annualized revenue, according to a release at the time. Cursor was also ranked at No. 37 on the annual CNBC Disruptor 50 list in 2026. The $60 billion in class A common stack that SpaceX has agreed to pay to acquire Cursor represented a 3.4% dilution at the aerospace and tech conglomerate’s IPO valuation.
