How Cursor AI Transforms Your Entire Business Workflow

Cursor AI isn't just for coding — it can be your comprehensive business interface to manage finance, analytics, UX, marketing, and QA all in one place.

Using Model Context Protocols (MCPs), Cursor connects seamlessly to third-party tools like Xero for finance, Playwright for UX and QA, and Firecrawl for marketing scraping.

You can automate complex tasks such as creating financial quotes, running UX split tests with screenshots and recommendations, generating SEO-rich content by scraping your own website, and even automating quality assurance tests.

This unified setup eliminates switching between multiple apps, dramatically improving productivity and precision through programmable, actionable workflows.

Amir emphasizes the power of combining "thinking" AI models for planning with "agentic" models for execution, enabling flexible and powerful automation while keeping you in control.
