Introducing Vantage in Cursor
Blog post from Vantage
Vantage has introduced a new plugin in the Cursor Marketplace, allowing users to manage and query their cloud cost data directly from the Cursor development environment. This integration, powered by Vantage MCP, enables engineering, platform, and finance teams to perform tasks like investigating spending, reviewing budgets, and acting on recommendations without leaving their workspace. Previously, such operations required manually configuring the Vantage MCP server, which was not easily shareable or well-integrated. With the new plugin, users can install it with a single step from the Cursor Marketplace, enhancing the accessibility and usability of Vantage's functionalities within Cursor. The plugin respects Vantage permissions and role-based access control, ensuring that users only access data and resources they are authorized to view. The integration is designed to reduce context switching by providing natural-language querying capabilities for cloud costs and related FinOps workflows directly within Cursor.
