Update, June 2026: Windsurf is now Devin Desktop, sold by Cognition. Existing installs updated in place; plan names and prices on this page follow the Devin lineup (Devin Pro at $20/month, Devin Max at $200/month, Devin Teams from $80/month plus $40 per full seat). The Cascade agent was replaced by Devin Local.
Quick Verdict
Devin Pro is the AI editor at $20/month with purpose-built SWE 1.7 models and built-in deployment. It suits developers who want a single tool for writing, editing, and shipping code. Cursor Pro costs $20/month but opens the door to every frontier model on the market, Max Mode with 1M token context, and autonomous Cloud Agents that work while you sleep. Simplicity and a streamlined SWE workflow favor Devin Desktop; model breadth and autonomy favor Cursor.
What Devin Pro Gets Right
Devin Pro starts at $20/month, the same as Cursor Pro on monthly billing. That price includes access to the SWE 1.7 model family, which is purpose-trained for software engineering tasks like refactoring, test generation, and multi-file edits, plus native access to Claude, GPT and Gemini frontier models and open-source models like Kimi K2.5. Devin Local, Devin Desktop’s agentic editing mode, operates directly inside the editor and coordinates changes across files without leaving your workflow. Devin Pro also bundles unlimited app deploys directly from Devin Desktop, so you can push a project live without configuring external hosting.
Where Cursor Pro Pulls Ahead
Cursor Pro’s main advantage is model diversity. Subscribers can switch between GPT-4.1, Claude Opus 4, Claude Sonnet 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and xAI models within the same IDE. Max Mode extends the context window to 1M tokens on eligible models, which is critical for large monorepo navigation or long-context debugging. Cloud Agents run coding tasks asynchronously — they can create branches, open PRs, and iterate on code without the developer watching. For teams that outgrow Pro, Cursor offers Pro+ at $60/month and Ultra at $200/month with higher usage caps and priority model access.
Pricing at a Glance
Devin Pro is $20/month with no annual option publicly listed. Cursor Pro is $20/month or $16/month on annual billing, saving $48/year. For teams, Devin Teams costs $80/month minimum plus $40/month per full developer seat, while Cursor charges $40/seat/month. Both team plans include SSO, admin controls, and centralized billing. Monthly pricing for individual plans is now identical at $20/month; billing Cursor annually brings its price down further.
Bottom Line
Choose Devin Pro if you want built-in deploys, native access to multiple frontier models, and a streamlined SWE-focused workflow. Choose Cursor Pro if model flexibility, 1M-token context, and autonomous agents matter more to you than Devin Desktop’s SWE-focused workflow.
