More AI service companies are building in-house models to cope with the cost of using advanced AI models and to compete with large model developers. Legal AI startup Harvey has developed its Tenet model based on Moonshot\'s low-cost open-source Kimi K3. Coding AI Cursor is also accelerating its own model work and has launched its Origin code hosting platform. South Korea plans to revamp support for firms in the Dokpamo project from the third evaluation round.

AI coding startup Cursor has launched an India-only subscription plan priced at 649 rupees, about $7 a month, below its $20 Pro plan. The company said this is its first country-specific pricing and cited India as its third-largest market with high power-user density. Cursor said the plan targets demand between free and Pro tiers and includes local rupee billing and UPI payments. The move coincides with SpaceX’s planned $60 billion all-stock acquisition.
