How Cursor deploys AI inside the enterprise
agentictool-use
What happened
Pauline Brunet, VP of Forward Deployed Engineering at Cursor, discusses how the company deploys AI agents across the software development lifecycle in enterprise environments. She outlines the role of Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) who build highly customized, configurable agentic workflows tailored to enterprise codebases, moving the industry toward an 'AI software factory' model rather than just individual developer tools.
Why it matters
Enterprise agent adoption requires deep integration into existing developer workflows and custom environments, not just out-of-the-box chat interfaces.
The take
Cursor is the gold standard for developer-agent UX. Hearing how they scale this to enterprise teams shows that the bottleneck isn't just model capability, but the integration of agents into complex, custom developer environments. The 'AI software factory' concept is a key trend to watch.
