Cursor Enterprise is the strongest native control set in this category: audit logs, access controls for repositories, models and MCP servers, network and auto-run controls. All of it governs Cursor. The gap opens the moment a developer opens something else.
Cursor pricing and capabilities were read from the vendor’s own pages in October 2026. Products change. If something here is out of date, tell us and we will correct it.
We write this section first. A comparison that only lists wins is an advert, and it reads like one.
Audit logs, service accounts, repository and model access, MCP access, auto-run, browser and network controls. We do not sell an editor and cannot match this inside one.
Teams is listed at $30 and up per user per month. Most of this market hides the number.
Team-wide privacy mode and custom chat data retention are set centrally.
Group-level settings and spend limits, plus SCIM, make it manageable at size.
One policy compiles into each agent’s own format, so the same rule holds in Cursor, in a terminal agent, and in whatever ships next quarter.
A signed chain in your repository stays readable after a tool is swapped. A log inside a product does not.
Commit trailers point at the run receipt, so a diff traces back to a model, a prompt hash and a policy decision.
Fastpace detects AI-shaped work that never passed through a governed tool, which no single vendor can see.
The same ten questions appear on every Fastpace comparison, so the pages can be read against each other. A tilde means partly, and it carries a note.

Keep Cursor Enterprise for in-editor control, and let Fastpace carry the cross-tool policy and the signed record. Cursor stops the thing in the moment; Fastpace proves what happened afterwards, across every agent.
Cursor gives you the best controls available inside one tool. Fastpace gives you one rule set and one record across all of them.

No tool does. Fastpace produces evidence and maps it to the controls a framework names. The judgment stays with your auditor, and Fastpace holds no certification on your behalf.
The policy compiler reports what each target can and cannot enforce. Some settings are protected by the operating system and some a determined developer can route around. We would rather print that than imply a guarantee.
We publish no customer logos we cannot name and no statistics we cannot source. Ask us for a pilot rather than a reference wall.
The CLI ships under the Elastic 2.0 licence. It runs locally in your repository, and we call that source-available because that is what it is.
Free is $0, Plus $8, Premium $30, Super $100 and Ultra $200. Teams is listed at $30 and up per user per month, and Enterprise is custom. Checked October 2026.
Because they cover Cursor, they live inside the vendor, and they are not a tamper-evident chain. If your fleet is one tool and your auditor accepts a vendor log, you may not need more.
Yes. The policy compiler emits rules in each supported tool’s own enforcement format, and the compiler reports honestly which rules a given target can and cannot enforce.
The receipts are written by hooks after a tool call. The policy is the part that can block, and that is what you decide when you write it.
