The Founders Fund-backed San Francisco startup Cognition AI (also known as Cognition Labs) made a name for itself out of nowhere in early 2024 with the release of Devin, its AI-powered software engineer that could work alongside human developers and carry out tasks autonomously through natural language instructions given to them by a human dev through a prompt window or even separate third-party communication app Slack.But the AI dev landscape has advanced rapidly since then, with many other companies offering similar functionality and autonomous or semi-autonomous coding agents, including GitHub Copilot, AWS Developer Q, Codeium’s Windsurf, and Cursor.Cognition itself has since its inception leveraged other models, namely OpenAI’s GPT-4 and GPT-4o series, to power Devin. Now today, Cognition is hitting back with Devin 2.0, an updated version of its agent-native software development platform. It’s unclear what foundation model is powering this version.The new release is now generally available and introduces a range of features aimed at making collaboration between developers and Devin’s autonomous agent smoother and more productive.Furthermore, in an age of economic uncertainty and certain cost increases thanks to the new Trump tariffs, Cognition is also providing a welcome relief with a major price drop: Devin 2.0 is available starting at $20 per month minimum ($2.25 per “Agent Compute Unit”, how Cognition measures the compute resources required to run Devin), whereas before, previous versions of the software started around $500 per month.

Anthropic announced today that its AI assistant Claude can now search and process information from the internet in real time, addressing one of users’ most requested features and closing a critical competitive gap with OpenAI’s ChatGPT.The new web search capability, available immediately for paid Claude users in the United States, transforms the AI assistant from a tool limited by its training data cutoff to one that can access and synthesize the latest information across the web.“With web search, Claude has access to the latest events and information, boosting its accuracy on tasks that benefit from the most recent data,” Anthropic said in its announcement. The company emphasized that Claude will provide direct citations to sources, allowing users to fact-check information— a direct response to growing concerns about AI hallucinations and misinformation.AI arms race intensifies as Anthropic secures billions in fundingThis launch comes at an important moment in the rapidly evolving AI sector. Just three weeks ago, Anthropic secured $3.5 billion in Series E funding at a post-money valuation of $61.5 billion, underscoring the high stakes in the AI race. Major backers include Lightspeed Venture Partners, Google (which holds a 14% stake), and Amazon, which has integrated Claude into its Alexa+ service.The web search rollout also follows Anthropic’s recent release of Claude 3.7 Sonnet, which the company claims has set “a new high-water mark in coding abilities.” This focus on programming proficiency appears strategic, especially in light of CEO Dario Amodei’s recent prediction at a Council on Foreign Relations event that “in three to six months, AI will be writing 90% of the code” that software developers currently produce.The timing of this feature launch reveals Anthropic’s determination to challenge OpenAI’s dominance in the consumer AI assistant market
Cognition AI Inc., the developer of an artificial intelligence-powered coding assistant, has raised hundreds of millions of dollars at a valuation close to $4 billion, according to people familiar with the matter.
The race to deploy artificial intelligence (AI) engineering agents that can rival — and even replace — human software engineers is accelerating. Last week, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that by the end of the year, the company’s most advanced AI reasoning model could rank first in competitive programming contests in the world. During a recent QA panel at the University of Tokyo, he said the first version of its reasoning model ranked one millionth among competitive programmers globally. Then it reached 10,000th place. OpenAI’s latest and most powerful reasoning model — o3 — was able to reach 175th place
