## **Devin is now generally available!**

Check out our [announcement on X](https://x.com/cognition_labs/status/1866535303911182771). All engineering teams can now tag Devin to fix frontend bugs, create first-draft PRs for backlog tasks, make refactors, and more. Subscriptions starts at $500/month and include:

- Unlimited seats - Devin is built for engineering teams
- Access to Devin’s API, Slack integration and IDE extension
- Onboarding session & direct support from the Cognition engineering team

## **Devin is now faster and more cost-efficient**

Over the last 2 weeks, we’ve made Devin ~10% faster and ~10% more cost-efficient, especially for tasks that require Devin to make many code edits. This means the same task will require fewer Agent Compute Units (ACUs).

## **Fixes for crashing, stuck, and hanging Devins**

If you’ve noticed Devin stuck on the same action or unable to sleep/wake up, please let us know via [Slack Connect](https://app.devin.ai/settings/support) or support@cognition.ai. These issues should not happen again, and we’re happy to refund your ACUs if they do!

## **More options to customize Devin**

By default, sessions in your sidebar are filtered to non-archived sessions that you started. Change your default filters by clicking on the filter icon next to "Search sessions" > “Save as Default” at the bottom of your filters list.

By default, Devin automatically responds to PR comments and CI failures. Change this using the “Control Options” section in Devin's PR comment.
