In-Depth Product Analysis of Devin, the Hottest AI Developer
In the past few years, I’ve been helping AI companies turning their great AI technology into products users will want and use. During these experiences, I’ve been using AI more and more to evolve from a product designer to a product builder, ultimately aiming to build features on my own, leveraging AI.
When Devin by Cognition Labs got announced, I knew I had to try it: an AI product, apparently a very good one, that could also help me build even more!
Introduced by an early investor to Scott, the Cognition Labs CEO, I explained my use case: being able, as a product guy, to build from scratch a web app with the help of Devin. Scott found this experiment pretty cool and introduced me to Silas, who manages the early access process. They were both very candid and totally transparent:
I agree that this use case is what we all secretly dream of. I will warn you that the intended user of Devin is an engineer because it still needs technical guidance and tasks of smaller scopes – it usually can't quite do full projects yet. That being said, I'd love for you to give it a try.
