Cursor Router optimizes AI model selection for cost and latency

Cursor has enhanced its AI routing system, Cursor Router, by leveraging millions of weekly user interactions. This system intelligently directs tasks to different AI models to optimize for latency and cost. The company notes that no single model excels at all tasks, highlighting specific strengths for Grok 4.5 on routine jobs, GPT 5.6 "Sol" on planning and code comprehension, Opus 5 on execution-heavy tasks, and Fable 5 on debugging and visual implementation.
