About

Devin is an AI software engineer by Cognition, built for engineering teams running complex, multi-repo projects. It learns your codebase, picks up tribal knowledge, and completes development tasks end to end — from PR review and issue triage to multi-week code migrations, all executed by parallel cloud agents.

Key Features

End-to-end autonomous development: plans, codes, tests, and ships PRs the way your team does — responding to review feedback and CI results until each PR merges.
Parallel cloud agents: run many agents at once across projects or modules; spin up a team of Devins for large, multi-week, multi-repo efforts.
Codebase knowledge: a Knowledge system captures your conventions and tribal knowledge; Devin reads past session trajectories and keeps improving.
Devin Automations: turn routine work into automated flows — scheduled release notes, issue follow-ups, recurring refactors, no human trigger required.
Deep integrations: GitHub, Linear (assign tickets or add a label), Slack & Teams (tag Devin to turn discussions into PRs), Datadog incident triage, plus the Devin API.

Pricing & Fees

  • Pricing: Individual plans include Free ($0), Pro ($20/month), and Max ($200/month). The Teams plan costs $80/month plus $40/month per full dev seat, while Enterprise pricing is quote-based via sales.
  • Free tier: The Free plan includes unlimited inline edits and Tab completions, plus a light quota of agent usage and limited model availability.
  • Usage limits: Paid plans include a usage allowance that refreshes daily and weekly; extra usage can be purchased at API pricing once included usage is exhausted. Cost per message varies by model, task size, complexity, and reasoning required.
  • Team features: The Teams plan supports up to 200 users with sharing and collaboration, centralized billing, an admin dashboard with analytics, and priority support; Enterprise adds SAML/OIDC SSO, VPC deployment options, and dedicated account management.
  • Platform availability: Available as a cloud service (app.devin.ai), a desktop app for Mac, Windows, and Linux, a CLI, and a JetBrains plugin.

Who It's For

  • Engineering teams owning complex multi-repo codebases
  • Tech leads automating routine engineering work
  • Open-source maintainers handling triage, reviews, and docs at scale
  • Enterprises needing secure, controlled AI engineering capacity
