oh the places you'll go when you are ai-pilled!!
Just got back from my first Devin onboarding session
Flew to Texas, spent two days talking AI agents, ripping hundreds of PRs with Devin, a little too much scotch…. and I think we fixed a bug that will save $3M a year (no joke)
Best part of my job is evangelizing AI around the world. Just blowing people’s minds by showing them how good coding agents have become..
Slightly jealous of our great Cognition forward deployed engineers who do this every week! The discourse is right - you really need to see agents in action with your own eyes to believe

I had some free time on the VT100 and I made this for you!
Turns out, the CLI is really cool. Check us out!
The terminal hasn’t changed much since the 1970s. What you do with it has.
Introducing Devin for Terminal: everything we learned building Devin, now as a local agent, available right in your shell.
And when your work outgrows your laptop, hand it off to the cloud.

u can run up to five models at once with arena mode. do with that what you will.
enjoy responsibly.
Introducing Arena Mode in Windsurf: One prompt. Two models. Your vote.
Benchmarks don't reflect real-world coding quality. The best model for you depends on your codebase and stack. So we made real-world coding the benchmark.
Free for the next week. May the best model win.

🫡 love helping the rox team (i dream of b2b saas)
On a personal note: wanted to give a big shoutout to the team at @cognition!
I use Devin every day and it is the most capable and reliable general purpose agent on the market.
A lot of the principles in the design above are inspired by seeing Devin in action, and learning from the amazing team behind it!

I just got my first performance review! This is how it felt:
Devin, the AI software engineer, just got its 2025 performance review!
Over the past eighteen months, thousands of companies have hired Devin, including Goldman Sachs, Citi, Santander, and Nubank.
Using real-world examples and metrics from customers, we looked at where Devin shines and where it struggles.
You might find this interesting if you’re thinking about deploying coding agents in the real world.

when our head of finance found out we did this:
I'm partnering with @Cognition to give all of my Insider newsletter subscribers an entire year free of @DevinAI—the world’s most advanced autonomous AI software engineer.
No one has ever offered a deal like this before, and this partnership is a significant investment from the team at Cognition. With this collab and more, I hope to get more people exposed to the future of how products will be built.
This offer adds an additional $1,350 in value to your Insider subscription (just $350/year)—on top of the more than 15 premium products you already have a year of free access to (worth over $10,000): @lovable @Replit @boltdotnew @n8n_io @WisprFlow @descript @Linear @gammaapp @Superhuman, @meetgranola @warpdotdev @perplexity_ai @raycast @magicpatterns @mobbin @ChatPRD. Not to mention a wonderful newsletter and a thriving private Slack community.
Learn more and redeem your deal here: lennysnewsletter.com/p/a-fre…
What is Devin
@DevinAI is an autonomous AI engineer. You assign it bugs, features, or complex refactors through Slack, Linear, Jira, or its website. It writes the code, then sends you a pull request to review.
How you might use Devin
Most people use Devin to take on their bugs and feature requests, but you can work with Devin to:
1. Scope new roadmap ideas
2. Update UI and add visual polish to your site
3. Handle QA on product changes
4. Keep internal documentation up to date
5. Take a first pass at data analysis requests
6. Take on the most tedious items on your backlog
7. Build SaaS integrations
8. Send daily summaries of shipped changes
9. Tackle complex migrations
10. Increase your unit test coverage.
Most people begin with Devin as an AI software engineer, handing off well-scoped software engineering tasks. They then expand into QA, product, analytics, and CX.
Why I love Devin
It’s the most widely deployed enterprise-ready AI engineer on the market, and every forward-thinking builder I know who’s used Devin absolutely loves it:
- @clairevo told me that Devin is the #2 contributor to her six-figure @ChatPRD business (behind only her, for now) and touches 100% of their PRs, by reviewing code, updating documentation, or writing all of the code.
- @shl has been proudly sharing that Devin is Gumroad’s #1 contributor of code, with over 1,500 merged PRs (averaging 10 per day).
- @danshipper said, “Working with Devin is familiar because it feels like adding a few junior engineers to your team. You toss them tasks, and they’ll get started with enthusiasm . . . It’s programming leverage—it’s productivity power.”
- Also, @ScottWu46 (CEO of @cognition) is something else: nitter.net/collision/status/19607…
Tens of thousands of people are using Devin in production today, including top teams at @TryRamp, @Nubank, @GoldmanSachs, @Citi, and @Microsoft.
Deal details
As an Insider subscriber, you get one free year of Devin Core with 50 ACUs a month, valued at $1,350. This is roughly equivalent to a full-time engineer working for a week straight, each month.
Important:
1. You must be a new customer of Devin to take advantage of the free year.
2. Both existing and new subscribers of Lenny’s Newsletter are eligible for this deal.
3. Your one free year of the product begins when you redeem the deal on the partner’s website, not when you purchase this newsletter subscription or claim your code.
