Seems like Devin is actually way better than expected.
Been watching Twitter demos and startups using devin effectively to ship more code faster. It's like Cursor x Greptile. Devin reviews your code and makes changes that it sees fit, and can help your dev team do tedious work faster.
I can see lots of startups using devin now in tandem with existing AI code gen tools to be more of a dev assistant rather than replacing the engineer entirely.
We're still a ways away from AGI, but devin actually is turning out to be a step in the right direction in terms of code gen.
My only gripe is the hefty $500 a month starting fee to use it. I hope they drop a free version/ or at least a free trial for more people to have access in the future.
What are your thoughts?
Not having a free trial is odd, but $500 is worth it if it works. It only needs to save 10 dev-hours/month to be worth it.
Greptile is free to try FWIW.
also would like to hear thoughts from people that have actually been using it
