About

Windsurf is an AI-native code editor developed by Codeium, designed to bring agentic AI directly into the software development workflow. Launched in late 2024, Windsurf introduced the 'Cascade' agentic framework — enabling the AI to autonomously read, write, and execute code across multiple files simultaneously, rather than merely suggesting single-line completions. The product became the second-most-discussed AI coding tool after Cursor, recognized for its aggressive pricing and deep IDE integration.
