Our verdict

This is the editor many people still search for as Windsurf: Cognition renamed it Devin Desktop on 2 June 2026, and existing installs moved over through a normal update. It keeps the VS Code-style editor with Tab completions and coding agents, and adds a command centre for managing local and cloud agents. The Free plan is fairly limited for agent work, and IT teams that allow-list 'Windsurf' by name need to add 'Devin'.

Unlimited Tab completions and inline edits, including on the Free plan
Agent Command Center for running and tracking local and cloud coding agents
Builds for Windows (x64 and ARM64), macOS and Linux (with apt and rpm repositories)

Pros

Pro: Smooth migration path for existing Windsurf users
Pro: Native Windows on ARM build
Pro: Frequent updates through a public changelog

Cons

Con: Free plan has only a light agent quota
Con: The rename can confuse users and break name-based allow-lists
Con: Heavy agent use is tied to paid plans
