The autonomous AI software engineer

Built with Devin?
Let's make sure it's production-ready.

Devin by Cognition is an autonomous AI software engineer that handles complete development tasks independently. It plans, codes, and debugs across multiple files but can make compounding architectural mistakes. We help non-technical founders identify and fix the issues AI tools leave behind.

Common issues we find in Devin code

These are real problems we see in Devin projects during our audits - not hypotheticals.

highSecurity

Autonomous security decisions

Devin makes security-related decisions without human review - choosing auth strategies, setting permissions, and configuring access controls that may be inadequate.

highCode Quality

Compounding architectural errors

When Devin makes an early architectural mistake, it builds subsequent features on top of it. By the time you notice, the issue is deeply embedded in the codebase.

mediumBugs

Workarounds instead of fixes

When Devin encounters an error, it sometimes adds workarounds that mask the root cause rather than fixing the underlying issue.

mediumPerformance

Inefficient retry patterns

Devin's debugging approach sometimes results in retry logic and fallback patterns that hide errors rather than resolving them, impacting performance.

mediumDeployment

Unclear deployment requirements

Devin's autonomous decisions create implicit deployment dependencies that aren't documented. Understanding what the app needs to run requires reverse-engineering.

mediumTesting

Auto-generated tests that pass but don't verify

Devin generates tests to satisfy coverage requirements but the assertions are too loose to catch actual bugs.

lowBugs

Inconsistent dependency management

Devin adds dependencies as needed during development, sometimes duplicating functionality already available or using conflicting library versions.

lowCode Quality

Missing documentation for complex flows

Devin builds complex multi-step processes without documenting the logic, making it hard for humans to understand or modify later.

Frequently asked questions

Can I trust what Devin built autonomously?

You should review it carefully. Devin's autonomy is powerful but risky - especially for security decisions and architecture. A human review of the entire output is essential.

How do I fix Devin's architectural mistakes?

We review Devin's architectural decisions, identify compounding errors, and refactor the foundation. It's easier to fix early - the longer you wait, the more code builds on the mistake.

Can you deploy a Devin-built project?

Yes, but we first review what Devin built to understand all dependencies and requirements. Then we set up proper deployment with documentation.

Is Devin's code production-ready?

Rarely without review. Devin builds functional applications, but its autonomous nature means security decisions, error handling, and architecture all need human validation.

Should I use Devin for my project?

Devin works best for well-defined tasks where you can review the output. For critical applications, pair Devin's output with a professional code review before launch.
