Regions and model availability
Some AI model providers have location-based restrictions, which means certain models may not be available in your region. When this happens, those models won't appear in Cursor, but all other models continue to work.
What can I do if a model is unavailable in my region?
- Use Auto: Auto selects an available model for each request
- Pick a different model: Manually select any model that remains enabled in your account
- Bring your own API key: If your provider serves your region, add your key in Cursor Settings > Models. Calls may still fail if the provider blocks your region even with your own key.
Which regions does each provider support?
Can I use Grok 4.5 in the EU?
Yes. Grok 4.5 is available in every country where Cursor normally offers models, including the EU.
Is Cursor Start available outside India?
No. Cursor Start is only available in India. You'll need to verify an Indian phone number when you subscribe. If you access Cursor from outside India or use a VPN, your requests may be blocked.
Does Cursor offer data residency controls?
Enterprise customers can enroll in US-only data residency so inference, processing, and storage for supported features stay in the US. See Privacy and Data Governance for supported models, exclusions, pricing, and how to enable it.
