About Continue
Continue is an open-source AI code assistant that has been acquired by Cursor. Its codebase remains freely available on GitHub under the Apache 2.0 licence.
What it does
Continue was built as an open-source coding agent that developers could run and adapt. The team says its code stays available as a foundation for others, and the project's direction now sits with Cursor. The site links to its documentation and GitHub repository.

Who it's for
Developers who want an open-source base for their own AI coding tools. Teams that need a long-term vendor relationship should review the change of ownership before they adopt it.
