AI Is Transforming Development — Any Plans for Cursor-Style AI in ThingWorx?

MA8731174 — Mon, 12 Jan 2026 05:50:12 GMT

Hi everyone,

with the rapid growth of AI-assisted development tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other AI pair-programmers, the software development workflow is changing dramatically. Productivity increases massively when AI can help generate code, refactor services, or even build application flows.

This made me wonder:

Is there any plan or possibility to integrate such AI assistance into the ThingWorx platform?
Whether directly in the Composer (e.g., for JavaScript services, bindings, queries) or as an extension/plugin that supports developers during implementation?

A ThingWorx-native AI assistant could:

speed up development of services and mashups, help optimize existing code
improve accuracy and reduce mistakes, act as an intelligent partner for faster problem-solving

With tools like Cursor proving what is possible, I’m curious whether PTC is exploring something similar for the ThingWorx ecosystem.

Would love to hear your thoughts or any insights from the product team!

Thanks in advance!

In the "Industrial IoT & AI with ThingWorx" webinar they showed a small slide with "AI-Powered Developer Tools" - Faster & efficient application development with AI. Showing mashup builder with a chat asking to create a header, body, footer and a grid bound to a service on a thing. But they did not go in depth - just a 10 second mention. At around 08:21

Thank you for the question. This year we are focused on delivering AI based insights using multiple collaborative agents across the platform. Improving developer productivity using AI is next on our roadmap and something we are actively researching.

Some of the use cases we are exploring include building mashup based applications using AI prompts, AI assisted search across ThingWorx entities, and AI plus MCP based model mapping to simplify data integration from Kepware and other systems.

We do not have anything specific to announce yet, but we appreciate the interest and are glad to see customers looking forward to these updates. More details will be shared as this work progresses.
