How do these large corporation find softwares like cursor.sh?
- lasvad 3y agoAlso curious about this and questioning its validity…
- cotsog 3y agoIt’s an easy trick: they just check the domains of the email addresses of people who created an account and display the logos of the high profile ones.
- lucw 3y agoThat's pretty fraudulent. Unless you signed a B2B contract, you can't claim thath.
- teddyh 3y agoWell, they can; it’s just illegal.
- outcoldman 3y agoWorst case they are going to get a legal email from those companies to remove the logos. When I worked at one of the large startup company, we all were submitting various websites to our legal department to remove our logo. I own B2B business, just never felt confident to ask other businesses if that is ok to show theirs logos, so don’t show any. Probably a miss of opportunity.
- quickthrower2 3y agoAsk a friend to use it once on a free trial. They work for Uber. Logo won. Rinse/repeat. I heard of cursor on the grapevine before it was posted here and I am not someone who stays on top of this stuff so they are doing a bit of marketing I reckon.
- nxobject 3y agoSame, too, for sites that say "trusted by students a ${PRESTIGIOUS_INSTITUTIONS}". Overuse of that little advertising trick has absolutely zeroed out whatever value it had.
