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.
FreemiumCursor's Hobby plan is free with no credit card required, offering limited Agent requests, limited Tab completions, and access to Composer. Pro costs $20/month and includes extended Agent limits, generous Grok and Composer limits, access to frontier models, MCPs/skills/hooks, cloud agents, and a $20 monthly credit pool for premium model usage. Pro+ costs $60/month with roughly 3x Pro's usage limits and a larger credit pool (~$70). Ultra costs $200/month with about 20x Pro's limits, a ~$400 credit pool, and priority access to new features. Teams Standard costs $40/user/month and adds centralized billing, a team marketplace, Bugbot code reviews, shared cloud agents, usage analytics, team-wide privacy mode, and SAML/OIDC SSO; Teams Premium costs around $120/user/month with roughly 5x Standard's included usage. Enterprise is custom-priced and adds pooled usage, invoice/PO billing, SCIM seat management, repository/model/MCP access controls, audit logs, and an AI code tracking API. Annual billing saves approximately 20% across all paid plans, and all prices are exclusive of applicable taxes.

Summary
Autonomous AI software engineer that plans, codes, and ships end-to-end
AI-native code editor with autonomous agents for building software
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
Cursor Pros & Cons
Pros
- Deep AI-native integration rather than a bolted-on plugin experience
- Free Hobby tier available with no credit card required
- Wide model choice across OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and in-house Composer models
- Autonomous cloud agents can work tasks end-to-end in parallel
- Privacy Mode guarantees code isn't used for model training when enabled
- SOC 2 certified with strong enterprise governance and access controls
Cons
- Credit-based billing means heavy agent or premium-model usage can exceed the base plan quickly
- Ultra tier is expensive at $200/month for power users
- As a VS Code fork, some proprietary VS Code extensions may not be fully compatible
- On-demand overage costs beyond included credits are billed in arrears and can surprise new users
- Enterprise pricing and invoice billing require contacting sales rather than transparent self-serve rates
