Cognition
Developer tool
Desktop coding environment running Devin's agents locally, including custom background agents that carry a team's context between sessions.
Multi-agent coding architecture pairing a frontier 'lead' model (planning/review) with a cost-efficient 'sidekick' (execution), up to 39% more efficient than other coding harnesses on major benchmarks; available now in Devin Desktop and Devin CLI.
Imbue
Developer tool
Parallel coding workspace that runs coding agents in isolated containers on the user's own machine.
No counterpart

AI agent
Autonomous coding agent that plans, writes, tests and ships code from a task description.
Local command-line coding agent that runs in the developer's terminal against local files, with Devin Cloud integration; bundled with Devin Desktop and presented by Cognition as a separate tool from the cloud-based Devin.
