About Continue

Continue was an open-source AI coding assistant focused on customizable model providers, IDE workflows and developer-controlled AI infrastructure. In 2026 the company announced that Continue had joined Cursor, so ScoutChoice should treat it as an acquired legacy product rather than a normal independent tool for new purchasing decisions.
