The Devin workspace

Meet 'Devin', the AI Software Engineer

What we know: Forget Sora, Cognition AI just dropped a baby AGI, and his name is Devin. Devin may not going to be as appealing to the masses as Sora, but the Dev community is going crazy!

Here’s what we know so far:

The Breakdown

  • ️Devin is UI/UX focused. For example, it doesn't need to show you what it's doing on the browser, but it does.

  • The workspace is made up of four tabs, the prompt tab, browser, shell/command line, and the code editor. You can track every single movement.

  • ️The product is finished, it's not a demo. Despite speculation that they dropped the demos to generate hype, Cognition claims that it’s ready for the market.

  • ️It auto-deploys to other apps like Netlify, protects API Keys, and can multitask without interrupting any running programs. Oh, and it can create images.

  • One major con is that Devin is slow and clunky. It can take him a long time to complete tasks and other times, he can’t complete the task at all.

  • Experts like Ethan Mollick believe that Devin’s capabilities will thoroughly shine through if it’s powered by ChatGPT 5. There’s speculation that behind the background, Devin is held together by strings.

How do I access Devin? You can apply to join the beta waitlist on the Cognition Labs Website.

Why does this matter? Well, imagine being able to build any software your mind can imagine. Maybe it’s a neighborhood watch app that connects different video doorbells for more intense security. Or a personal Instagram for you and your friends. You dream it, Devin can build it.
