Ehsan's Recommendation
The counterintuitive insight: the value is not in either tool alone, but in the data loop between ai chat and ai code tools. With Cohere feeding into Cursor, you remove the biggest friction point in most finance ops workflows. Build the reporting dashboard first. If you cannot measure it, you cannot justify it.
