What people previously said about Devin

“Heads up: it doesn't appear to be available on the Devin CLI (for me as a free user).”

“A friend recently pushed me to try out their coding platform, Devin, after I decided to move away from Cursor. I had the same reaction: "What, the con artists from like 2024?" But after some cajoling, I gave it a shot and was pleasantly surprised. I guess they learned their lessons, grew up, and are doing good work now, maybe?”

“Would benchmark it, but unfortunately it's available only on Devin.”

“I have not met a single person/company that uses Devin… does anyone here actually use it?”

“Not sure it matters when devin is the most consistently shit product I've used. And yes, I tried again, they wasted the money on the billboards.”

“Seemingly excellent engineering org.I used to really like Windsurf. (Now Devin. Kind of? But also now Antigravity.) I still use it as my editor but haven't touched the agent for a while simply due to the rise of Codex.”

“With the Devin subscription even at the 20$ plan, they offered unlimited SWE 1.7 usage. Wondering if they do the same for SWE 2.”

“I'm disappointed to see I need to use a bespoke platform to interact with this agent, to the point that I probably won't be trying it.”

“> devin : the best agent setup you can get with just $20 monthly sub. just connect devin with your gmail, slack, github etc. i also gave it some api keys for scraping and research.”

“Devin does some things well that I find useful, like proactively investigating bugs and quickly scoping projects - worth a try”

“There's a moment when a company accelerates beyond already-high expectations. Everything clicks. That was true for OpenAI with ChatGPT, for Anthropic with Claude Code -- and now for @cognition with Devin.”

“Devin has a few nice features like a nice model picker UI that shows you model price in a clear way. The context window widget shows you a countdown to when the cache expires and warns you when it pas expiration.”

“We've employed devin's slack bot as internal customer support. It works really well for this! Previously operations, people would tie up a couple hours per question of engineer time.”

“We tried Devin in the prehistoric times of Claude Sonnet 3.5-3.7 when agentic coding went off the rails after like 30 minutes.”

“Devin treats you like a customer, and not like a lab rat, where they destroy your entire workflow on a whim because somebody at Anthropic had the bright idea that the desktop app should no longer permit resuming subagents which already have the right context cached.”

“Following, because it blows my mind that devin still exists.”

“The Devin native integrations give you a good idea of which platforms are still core/critical in an AI-first development org.”

“in the last two months devin has hit pmf with ai-native startups. tons of new signups from my favorite teams”

“I am going to conduct tests of Devin AI ... Let's see what kind limits they have to us”

“I see a small hit in performance, it's less stable than Q8 about the tokens per second, but honestly, it's better to have more accuracy and wait a little longer than a bad performing model and I say this while having a devin cli subscription that gives me a "free and unlimited" GLM 5.2 that really sucks as I explained in my original comment.”

“This type of AI-to-AI review should be done agent-to-agent, not through Github PRs with tools like Devin.In a manual review, I then expect all “machinery” to already be properly reviewed, and can focus on design / architecture.”

“- token cost is way higher than official ant/oai”

“\- Sequential for Deep Reasoning: Single-threaded stateful chains with memory compression (the Devin / Cognition architecture).”

“* Their answer: one single-threaded agent plus context compression. This is how Devin works”

“use it the same way devin fusion works (strong + weak model combination to get same results as strong model for cheaper).”

“AI coding agent PR merge rates: Claude 84%, Codex 74%, Devin 43%, humans 85%”

“essential $200/mo subscriptions: - Codex - Claude - Cursor - Devin - Droid it now costs $1,000/mo to be an entry-level Agentic Engineer”

“Doesn't the 1% include e.g. Devin, Cursor, OpenRouter? Guessing the underlying spend is more distributed”

“Devin for QA is so slept on”

“With the current Anthropic situation and OpenAI pulling out of Cursor, I started using Devin Desktop app from @cognition . Lets me have occasional access to Claude without locking me entirely with Anthropic. So my current coding arsenal is Codex, Devin and Grok Build.”

“Devin has autonomous sessions.”

“@wongmjane @cognition @devindesktop Can Devin build Linear before Linear builds Devin?”

“I had Claude & Devin collaborating. CC was adversarially reviewing a Devin PR, saw issues, cut its own branch with fixes, got Cursor to thumb, then merged it in. 😂”

“Devin Automations is the most obvious one: solid UX, but can get very expensive to run.There are also a bunch of newer startups in this space.”

“Great write up of some recent rendering performance improvements the team has made to @DevinAI’s UI.”

“Being able to hand a task from one specialized agent to another without manually moving the context with it. That sounds small until you’ve tried running multiple agents on the same piece of work.”

“we @cimentoai have been using @DevinAI - and its exceed all of our expectations.”

“Slack just redefined what a channel is. Slack Code lets agents like Claude Code and Devin create their own channels, work in the open with live diffs and previews, then archive themselves into an audit log when done.”
