Pricing
FreemiumDevin's Free plan costs $0/month with a light quota to code with agents, limited model availability, and unlimited inline edits and Tab completions. Pro costs $20/month and adds increased quotas, access to OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini frontier models, free use of SWE 1.7 and leading open-source models, Devin Cloud access, and the ability to purchase extra usage at API pricing. Max costs $200/month with everything in Pro plus significantly higher usage quotas for power users. Teams costs $80/month as a base team fee plus $40/month per full developer seat, and includes unlimited team members via flex seats, sharing and collaboration, centralized billing, an admin dashboard with analytics, and priority support. Enterprise is custom-priced ("let's talk") and adds highest-priority support, dedicated account management, SAML/OIDC SSO, centralized enterprise admin controls, and dedicated VPC deployment options. Usage allowances refresh daily and weekly, and extra usage beyond included quotas is billed at API pricing.
FreemiumCodeium launched with a genuinely free tier for individual developers — unlimited code completions, chat, and search across 70+ languages and 40+ IDEs with no time limit or credit cap. Enterprise plans (custom pricing) added on-premises deployment, SOC 2 compliance, SSO, and zero code retention. After launching the Windsurf Editor in November 2024, the company introduced paid tiers: Free ($0) with unlimited Tab autocomplete and a light agent quota; Pro ($15/month, later raised to $20/month in March 2026) with full model access, standard refreshing agent quota, and Cascade; Teams ($30/user/month); and Enterprise ($60/user/month) with SSO, 1,000 prompt credits, and enhanced security. Following Cognition AI's acquisition and the June 2026 rebrand to Devin Desktop, pricing is now managed under Cognition's Devin plan structure: Free ($0), Pro ($20/month), Max ($200/month), Teams ($80/month + $40/seat), and Enterprise (custom). The codeium.com/pricing URL now redirects to devin.ai/pricing.

Devin Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Handles full engineering workflows end-to-end, not just inline suggestions
  • Fleet-based parallel agents can tackle large-scale migrations across many repos
  • Deep integrations with GitHub, Linear, Jira, Slack, and Teams for real dev workflows
  • Free tier available to try core agent capabilities with no cost
  • Documented enterprise results, including major efficiency and cost gains at Nubank
  • VPC deployment and SSO support enterprise security requirements

Cons

  • Early benchmark and demo claims were criticized as overstated, so results should be evaluated against a team's own workflows
  • Best suited to well-scoped, reviewable tasks rather than fully unsupervised production work
  • Usage-based cost can climb quickly for teams running many parallel sessions
  • Full model availability and cloud agents require the $20/month Pro plan or higher
  • Quality of output still requires human review, especially on complex or ambiguous tasks
Codeium

Codeium Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Genuinely unlimited free tier for individual developers — no credit limits or trial expiry
  • Broadest IDE coverage of any AI coding tool with 40+ editor integrations at launch
  • Rapid iteration: went from plugin to agentic IDE and $100M ARR in under 3 years
  • Enterprise-grade security with on-prem/VPC deployment, SOC 2, and zero code retention options
  • Cascade/Windsurf Editor introduced flow-aware multi-file agentic coding before competitors
  • Backed by top-tier investors and reached $1.25B unicorn valuation in just 2 years

Cons

  • Rebranded twice (Codeium → Windsurf → Devin Desktop) creating confusion and instability for users
  • Original Codeium extension identity sunset — codeium.com now redirects to Devin/Cognition
  • Pro pricing rose from $15 to $20/month in March 2026, removing its budget pricing edge over Cursor
  • Cascade agent fully retired July 1, 2026 — replaced by Devin Local under new ownership
  • Heavy agentic workflows require Pro plan; free tier agent quota is limited
  • Brand owned by Cognition AI (Devin), not the original Codeium/Windsurf founding team
