Cognition

Cognition is partnering with Infosys, one of the world’s largest digital IT services and consulting firms. Infosys will deploy Devin, the AI software engineer, across its engineering organization and global client base—starting with financial services and expanding to retail, energy, healthcare, and more. Human and AI software engineers will work side by side, both within Infosys's own teams and across their global client base, to accelerate delivery. Early results show significant productivity gains. Complex migrations like COBOL and JCP servlet projects have shifted from being long, resource-heavy undertakings to streamlined processes completed in record time. At scale, this will aim to dramatically expand Infosys's capacity to deliver for its clients.

Introducing Windsurf Wave 13: Shipmas Edition 🎅 Wave 13 brings first-class support for parallel, multi-agent sessions in Windsurf, along with Git worktrees, side-by-side Cascade panes, and a dedicated terminal profile for more reliable agent execution. And a Shipmas gift: a new variant of SWE-1.5 with the same near-frontier SWE-Bench-Pro performance, free to all users for 3 months at regular throughput. Happy holidays and merry shipping from the Cognition team!

Thank you to our partner AHEAD and Tim Curless for speaking at our booth during #AWSreinvent this year. The AHEAD services offering around accelerating the SDLC with Devin and Windsurf is top-tier. Cognition is excited for our continued partnership!

A milestone in enterprise AI deployment—Banco Itaú, Latin America's largest bank, rolled out Devin across the SDLC, one of the most extensive AI agent deployments in global financial services. Itaú operates one of the largest engineering organizations in Latin America, with 17,000+ people in tech and hundreds of thousands of repositories, including languages like COBOL. In an environment of great complexity and scale, they achieved outstanding results: 5-6x faster migration projects, 70% of security vulnerabilities from static analysis auto-remediated, doubled test coverage, and over 300,000 repos documented. Engineers are spending more time on architecture, problem framing, and business context, while AI handles routine and repetitive tasks. We're grateful to the Itaú team for their trust and partnership, and truly impressed by the scale of their execution. Hear directly from Carlos Eduardo de Almeida Mazzei, Itaú’s CTO, and Gabriel Pegorelli, Itaú’s Head of Developer Experience:

We’ve got a full lineup of live talks and demos happening in our booth theater at AWS re:Invent. Stop by Booth #779 to hear from our partners and team on how we’re building the future of software engineering. Tuesday, Dec 2 Agenda 2:00 pm — AHEAD Partner Spotlight 3:00 pm — DX Partner Spotlight 4:00 pm — Windsurf Demo: Refactoring Apps into Cloud-Native Architectures Come meet the team, learn from our partners, and see how enterprises are building with Devin and Windsurf.

Devin, the AI software engineer, just got its 2025 performance review! Over the past eighteen months, thousands of companies have hired Devin, including Goldman Sachs, Citi, Santander, and Nubank. Using real-world examples and metrics from customers, we looked at where Devin shines and where it struggles. You might find this interesting if you’re thinking about deploying coding agents in the real world. Link below:

Another example: A squad across Ops / HW / Product used DevinAI/Cognition to build a ticket analyzer that reads customer tickets, spots patterns, and suggests fixes automatically. Before: engineers spent 10-20 hours a week doing this manually Now: 20 minutes a day reviewing and training the workflow

AHEAD just published a detailed look at how enterprises are using AHEAD + Cognition to apply AI directly to the SDLC. The focus is on real workflows with measurable baselines, not abstract “AI strategy.” Across joint customers, the pattern is consistent: start with work that already has cycle-time data (dependency and framework upgrades, regression testing, onboarding), run a narrow pilot where correctness and throughput can be measured, use agentic tools like Windsurf and Devin to automate the repetitive parts, then scale once governance and data boundaries are in place. The outcomes are equally consistent. Teams are cutting multi-week regression testing down to days, accelerating onboarding by auto-generating configs and scaffolding, clearing backlog items like SonarQube fixes and dependency bumps, and producing release notes and architecture docs tied directly to the codebase—all without pulling senior engineers off roadmap work.

Every engineering team has a migration story: late nights, brittle builds, endless dependency errors. Moving from .NET Framework to .NET Core is one of the most notorious of them all. We wrote up a guide to automating .NET migrations using Devin: https://lnkd.in/gs_qckHD

Proud to be joining GitHub's new Agent HQ as launch partners. More choices and more ways to try Devin, coming later this year!
