Cursor Enterprise Results: NVIDIA, Salesforce, Stripe
Cursor reports more than 50,000 enterprises using it, about 64% of the Fortune 500, and an agent writing over 100 million lines of enterprise code a day. NVIDIA's CEO calls it his favorite enterprise AI service; Salesforce reports roughly 2x quality and velocity gains. These are customer- or Cursor-reported figures.

How widely is Cursor used in the enterprise?
Cursor's customers page reports adoption at large scale across the enterprise. The four headline numbers below all come from Cursor's own published material, so read them as vendor-reported reach rather than independently audited counts.
- Enterprises using Cursor
- More than 50,000.
- Share of the Fortune 500
- About 64%.
- Head-to-head preference
- 93% of engineers choose Cursor in comparisons.
- Enterprise code written daily
- Cursor's agent writes 100M+ lines per day.
All four figures are reported by Cursor on its customers page.
The 93% preference and the 100-million-lines-a-day figure are the kind of claims worth flagging as Cursor-reported when you put them in front of a buyer. They are real published statements, not measurements you can reproduce from the outside.
What does NVIDIA say about Cursor?
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has named Cursor directly in public remarks. Cursor cites him on its customers page; the quote below is attributed to him.
My favorite enterprise AI service is Cursor.
Per the same remarks, every one of NVIDIA's roughly 40,000 engineers is now assisted by AI, with productivity up "incredibly." NVIDIA runs Cursor inside its own guardrails: it uses hooks and other enterprise controls to keep development activity within its compliance boundaries.
A named CEO endorsement is durable - the person said it, on the record. The "productivity up incredibly" claim is sentiment, not a measured percentage. Quote the endorsement; don't convert the adjective into a number you can't defend.
What results did Salesforce see?
Salesforce reports broad adoption and roughly 2x gains in both code quality and velocity. Cursor's case study puts more than 90% of Salesforce engineers on the tool, across about 20,000 developers and a monorepo near 30 GB.
- Engineers using Cursor
- More than 90%.
- Developer base
- About 20,000.
- Monorepo size
- Around 30 GB.
- Reported gains
- Roughly 2x code quality and 2x velocity.
Customer-reported figures from Cursor's Salesforce case study.
Cursor credits its codebase indexing with making one of the world's largest monorepos workable for agents - a ~30 GB tree is where indexing quality stops being a nicety and starts gating whether the tool is usable at all.
AI is transforming how software is written and designed... a huge improvement in the quality of products.
What about Stripe?
Stripe's story is reliability-first. The team operates against a stated target of 99.99999% uptime, so any tool that touches the codebase has to clear a high bar before it earns trust. Cursor reports that it reduced setup and debug time and helped Stripe reach a five-year high in developer sentiment.
- Reliability bar: a stated target of 99.99999% uptime sets the context for everything else.
- Less setup and debug time: reported reductions in the slow parts of the loop.
- Developer sentiment: a reported five-year high.
- Faster prototyping: prototypes in hours rather than days.
Stripe also reports a second-order effect: Cursor "opened up new skill sets." Front-end engineers started contributing to back-end work, and an iOS engineer began exploring another part of the stack. That mobility is harder to measure than a velocity number, but it is the kind of change teams notice in who can pick up which ticket.
How much does Cursor build its own software with agents?
Cursor reports that about 40% of its own merged PRs are created end-to-end by cloud agents - opened, iterated and landed without a human writing the code by hand. This is Cursor reporting on Cursor, so read it as a vendor dogfooding claim.
The inflection was Cloud Agent Artifacts. Cursor reports that the merged-PR share from cloud agents roughly tripled after that shipped. By about March, Cursor says roughly 99% of its generated code came from cloud or IDE AI agents rather than being typed by hand.
As BugbotCursor's automated PR reviewer that posts inline findings and can push fix commits from isolated VMs. surfaces more findings, engineers resolve a higher share of them, not a lower one. The usual fear is that more automated comments means more noise and more dismissals. Cursor reports the opposite, because Bugbot focuses on severe, user-impacting issues - so a rising volume tracks with rising signal, and people act on it.
How should you read these numbers?
Most figures on this page are customer-reported or Cursor-reported. That does not make them false. It means the burden of context is on you: before any of this goes into a deal deck, sort the durable, third-party-verifiable facts from the perishable ones.

Durable facts survive a quarter and can be checked outside Cursor's marketing - a named CEO quote, a SOC 2 report, a product capability. Perishable facts are point-in-time vendor figures (the 40% PR share, the 100M lines/day) that drift and need re-checking before you cite them.

Frequently asked questions
Are these Cursor enterprise results independently verified?
Mostly no. The adoption counts, the ~2x Salesforce gains and the ~40% cloud-agent PR share are customer-reported or Cursor-reported. Named public statements - like NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang calling Cursor his favorite enterprise AI service - are on the record and durable. Treat measured percentages as point-in-time vendor figures and re-check the source date before quoting.
How many enterprises use Cursor?
Cursor reports more than 50,000 enterprises, including about 64% of the Fortune 500, and says its agent writes more than 100 million lines of enterprise code per day. These figures come from Cursor's customers page and are vendor-reported.
What did Salesforce report from using Cursor?
Salesforce reports more than 90% of its engineers on Cursor across roughly 20,000 developers and a ~30 GB monorepo, with about 2x gains in both code quality and velocity. Cursor credits its codebase indexing with making one of the world's largest monorepos workable for agents.
Does Cursor use its own agents to build Cursor?
Yes. Cursor reports that about 40% of its merged PRs are created end-to-end by cloud agents, a share that roughly tripled after Cloud Agent Artifacts shipped. By about March, Cursor says roughly 99% of its generated code came from cloud or IDE AI agents.
