Pros and cons

Cursor

Pros

  • Familiar VS Code-based editor with extension and keybinding support
  • Local and cloud agents that can run in parallel on multi-file tasks
  • Choice of models from several providers, including Cursor's own
  • Covers editor, CLI, web, Slack, iOS and PR review in one product
  • Privacy mode and SOC 2 and ISO certifications for team use

Cons

  • Third-party model usage is billed separately from the plan at API list price
  • Pricing is bundled with Grok and uses weekly usage pools, which makes costs harder to predict
  • No Android app, and the iOS app only controls local agents
  • Indexing can be heavy on very large repositories

FicWeave

Pros

  • Story Memory is visible and linked to source chapters, so you can check what carries into the next chapter
  • First chapter can be generated without an account
  • Clear monthly pricing from $7.99 with credits defined per continuation
  • Failed or canceled generations return credits
  • States plainly that it is independent and unaffiliated with fandoms

Cons

  • Free plan allows only 1 editable story and 3 starter continuations
  • Credits expire each month with no rollover
  • Memory can miss details, and continuations use a bounded summary rather than the full text
  • Web only, with no API or mobile app
