Where Synlets wins
Purpose-built for ticket-driven development teams.
Native Ticket Board Integration
Assign a Jira ticket or Asana task — get a working PR with code review. Zero config. Cursor can connect to Jira/Asana via MCP plugins, but it requires setup and still needs a developer in the IDE to manage the workflow.
Built for the Whole Team
Project managers, tech leads, and non-technical stakeholders can assign work directly from Jira or Asana. No IDE or coding knowledge required. Cursor is a developer power tool — Synlets is a team platform.
Policy-Based Review with Auto-Fix
Every PR gets reviewed against your company policies, coding standards, and internal documentation — then issues are fixed and re-reviewed automatically. Cursor has diff review and Blame tracking, but no custom policy-based review with auto-fix loops.
Cursor is the best AI-powered code editor available. Tab autocomplete, Composer, and now Background Agents and Long-Running Agents make it a powerhouse for developers. Its autonomous agents can run for hours and produce full PRs. If your team is developer-centric and lives in the IDE, Cursor is excellent. Synlets solves a different problem — it connects directly to your Jira or Asana board so PMs and leads can assign work without touching an IDE. Many teams use both: Cursor for hands-on coding, Synlets for ticket-driven automation.
