Devin Pro bundles Devin Desktop (formerly Windsurf IDE), Devin Local agent, Devin Cloud agents. Cursor Pro (Legacy) bundles Cursor Tab, Cursor Agent, Cloud Agents and 1 more tools. Devin Pro is best for individual developers using agents daily. Cursor Pro (Legacy) is best for daily individual coding. Devin Pro offers daily and weekly usage quota across devin desktop, devin cloud and devin cli; extra usage purchasable at api pricing, while Cursor Pro (Legacy) offers two monthly pools: cursor models (grok 4.7, grok 4.6, grok 4.5, composer 2.5) and other models (third-party models drawn down at api price); on-demand continuation available.

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-2 models and built-in deployment. It suits developers who want a single tool for writing, editing, and shipping code. Cursor Pro is a legacy plan that new customers can no longer buy. The comparable plan today is Cursor Premium at $30/month, which adds autonomous Cloud Agents, Automations, Origin, and Bugbot, with third-party frontier models billed at API price. Simplicity, a lower price, and a streamlined SWE workflow favor Devin Desktop. Cursor’s agent features and per-task model choice favor Cursor Premium.

What Devin Pro Gets Right

Devin Pro starts at $20/month, less than Cursor Premium at $30/month. That price includes access to the SWE-2 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 Pulls Ahead

Cursor’s main advantage is agent features and model choice. It ships its own models (Grok 4.7, Grok 4.6, Grok 4.5, Composer 2.5), and lets you call Claude, GPT, or Gemini at API list price from prepaid credit on Premium and above. Cloud Agents run coding tasks asynchronously — they can create branches, open PRs, and iterate on code without the developer watching. Premium also adds Automations, Origin, and Bugbot. For heavier use, Super is $100/month with 15x Plus usage and Ultra is $200/month with 50x. Legacy Pro subscribers keep their plan with both monthly usage pools.

Pricing at a Glance

Devin Pro is $20/month with no annual option publicly listed. Cursor Premium is $30/month and Plus is $8/month, excluding tax. Legacy Cursor Pro is $20/month for existing subscribers only. For teams, Devin Teams costs $80/month minimum plus $40/month per full developer seat, while Cursor Teams sells a Premium seat at $30/user and a Super seat at $100/user. Individual pricing is no longer the same: Devin Pro is the cheaper of the two.

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 Premium if Cloud Agents, Bugbot, and per-task model choice matter more to you than a lower price and Devin Desktop’s SWE-focused workflow. If you already have Cursor Pro, you keep it.
