What the demo must prove
Explain what the audience must see before it can trust the result.
Step 1 of 2
A good enterprise demo shows how the work is controlled. It is not a tour of features.
Show the control as you show the speed. If the audience cannot see who approves the plan, what limits the agent and who can merge, the demo leaves its main risk unanswered.
Use work that resembles theirs. A clean sample app may run smoothly, but it does not answer questions about legacy code, slow tests or unclear module boundaries.
Keep the result easy to review: a small change, visible rules, test evidence, an auditable pull request and a human approval gate.
A good Cursor demo proves one sentence: "The agent moved quickly, and the change stayed inside your controls."
Speed alone is not enough. The auditor, security lead and staff engineer each need evidence that the normal review and approval gates still apply.
