Cursor announced Cursor Router, a new model router allowing users to access frontier performance at 60% lower cost.
Cursor Router analyzes each request and routes to the best model for the job: frontier models when the work demands them and price-efficient models when it doesn't.
Routers hold huge business value, and this will continue to be the trend. I bet that in the long run, routers will also be pushing frontier capabilities beyond what pure models will be able to offer (due to multi-model routing), not just cost optimization.
