Key Features

  • Autonomous execution

    Plans, writes, tests, debugs, and deploys code end-to-end inside a sandboxed environment.

  • Agent-native IDE

    Integrated Windsurf IDE lets developers interact with Devin through a visual interface.

  • API access

    Team and Enterprise plans provide API access for custom integrations and orchestration.

  • Parallel agents

    Wave 13 enables multiple agents to work concurrently on different project components.

  • Enterprise controls

    VPC deployment, SAML/OIDC SSO, custom data retention, and SOC 2 compliance options.

  • Large context windows

    Higher tiers offer extended context (up to multi-million-token windows) for big codebases.

  • Code migration

    Automates large-scale migrations and refactoring with verification loops and tests.

What Cognition Does

Devin is an autonomous AI software engineering agent that plans, executes, and validates multi-step development work to reduce manual effort. It autonomously sets up environments, writes and tests code, debugs issues, iterates on solutions, and deploys applications within a sandboxed IDE, minimizing repetitive engineering tasks.

Devin provides API access, multi-agent orchestration, and parallel agent execution to run concurrent tasks. Higher tiers offer extended context windows, VPC deployment, SAML/OIDC SSO, and custom Devins for tailored workflows. The platform handles large-scale code migrations, automated refactoring, and verification loops.

Typical use cases include migrating legacy systems to cloud infrastructure, accelerating feature development for lean teams, automated bug triage and fixes, and enterprise deployments requiring strict compliance and access controls.

Pros & Cons

  • Superior performance

    Resolves 13.9% of real GitHub issues end-to-end on SWE-bench, leading peer benchmarks.

  • Autonomous agent

    Executes full software lifecycles rather than only offering suggestions.

  • Flexible pricing

    Core pay-as-you-go option and scalable Team/Enterprise plans for different organization sizes.

  • Security-ready

    Enterprise-grade security features support regulated and mission-critical deployments.

  • Usage pricing

    ACU-based billing can cause unpredictable costs for complex or long-running tasks.

  • Human oversight

    Complex tasks may require significant senior-engineer supervision and review.

  • Enterprise focus

    Sales cycles and custom contracts favor large enterprises over small teams.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Agent Compute Unit (ACU)?

Devin's Agent Compute Unit (ACU) is a normalized measure of compute used per task, covering VM time, model inference, and networking; roughly 1 ACU equals about 15 minutes, so one hour costs approximately $8–$9 depending on plan.

How does Devin perform compared to other AI coding tools?

Devin resolves 13.9% of real-world GitHub issues end-to-end on SWE-bench, outperforming GPT-4's 1.7% and Claude 2's 4.8%, and ranked #1 on LogRocket's AI Dev Tool list as of February 2026.

Is there a free tier available?

Devin's Core plan offers a pay-as-you-go option starting at $20/month; Windsurf IDE includes a free tier with 25 prompt credits per month and paid Pro/Teams/Enterprise tiers.

What companies currently use Devin?

Devin is used by companies including OpenSea, Ramp, Nubank, Lumos, Microsoft, Curai Health, Goldman Sachs, Citi, Dell, Cisco, Palantir, and Mercado Libre across thousands of engineering teams.

What happened with Windsurf and integration?

Cognition acquired Windsurf in December 2025 and began integrating Devin into an agent-native IDE, combining autonomous agent capabilities with a visual development environment and Windsurf pricing tiers.
