Devin alternatives in 2026: 8 coding agents to hand your tasks to instead

Disclosure: Enjoy is our product, and it runs Claude Code, Codex and Antigravity. We checked every option below against its maker’s own pages on November 6, 2026, and we say where another one is the better pick, Devin included.

Devin alternatives compared

Cognition calls Devin “your team’s autonomous software engineer”: it “runs in the cloud or on your machine, tests in its own browser, and won’t stop until the PR is ready to merge,” and it “Keeps working when your laptop is closed.” You tag it in Slack or Teams, assign it Linear issues and Jira tickets, or write /devin in a pull request comment. Its editor, Devin Desktop, “is the new name for Windsurf,” and our Windsurf alternatives guide covers the editors. This guide is about the agent you hand tasks to, and these are the ones people weigh against it.

Prices are per month as each maker lists them in the US, before tax. The cloud agents draw on their makers’ own plans or credits. OpenHands and Enjoy run agents on model keys or AI plans you pay for separately.

Why people look for a Devin alternative

Devin is capable, and on most of these points its rivals work the same way. These are the lines in Devin’s own pages that send people comparing:

• Its quota is its own. “Each paid plan comes with a usage allowance that refreshes automatically on a daily and weekly basis,” says its pricing, and past it you “Purchase extra usage at API pricing.” A plan you already pay for helps only so far: you can link a ChatGPT Go, Plus or Pro plan for GPT models, but “Models other than GPT” and “The machine time of Devin Cloud sessions” still use Devin’s quota.
• The cloud needs a paid plan. The free plan includes “a light quota to code with agents,” and “Access to cloud agents (Devin Cloud)” starts with Pro.
• Teams pay a minimum. “Every Teams account pays at least $80/month,” and a full seat is $40 a month, say its plan docs. Pro and Max “are individual plans. They cannot be shared across multiple users.”
• It does best on bounded tasks. Its guidance says “if a task would take you three hours or less, Devin can most likely do it,” and “For longer tasks, break them into smaller sessions.”

Factory

Best for: teams that want Devin’s shape, delegating from chat and tickets, from another maker.

Factory calls itself “an agent-native software development platform” for “planning, building, reviewing, testing, and shipping production software.” Its agent, Droid, works from “the command line, desktop, web, mobile, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, Linear, and CI.” Delegations are the Devin-like part: “Mention Factory in a conversation or delegate an issue, and Droid works on a remote computer using your organization’s agent profile,” and they’re open to “A Factory organization on any paid plan, including individual plans.” Automations run Droid on a schedule, on GitHub events or from webhooks.

Price: its pricing has Pro at $20 a month, with cloud and local background agents; Plus at $100, about five times Pro’s usage; Max at $200, about ten times; and Teams at $60 a month plus $40 a seat, for up to 10 seats. Bringing your own key “is free up to an allowance on all Individual plans.”

Watch for: three limits at once. Its plan docs set “three rolling windows, 5-hour, 7-day, and 30-day,” and “You need headroom in all three to send a request.”

GitHub Copilot’s cloud agent

Best for: work that starts on GitHub, at the lowest price here.

GitHub’s plans page offers to “Assign work to Copilot to research, plan, and write code — with or without a pull request.” You can start a session from issues, the Agents tab, failing GitHub Actions runs, GitHub Mobile, VS Code and JetBrains, the CLI, and from Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, Linear and Azure Boards, so most of Devin’s ways in are here. Automations start sessions on a schedule or on events such as a new issue.

Price: Pro is $10 a month, with $15 of AI credits, Pro+ $39 and Max $100, and the cloud agent is “Not included” on Free. The sandbox it works in draws on your GitHub account’s included compute, and “After the included amount is consumed, additional usage is billed to your account,” per GitHub’s billing page.

Watch for: “Copilot only works with repositories hosted on GitHub,” says its docs, and it “can open one pull request per task.”

Claude Code

Best for: handing Claude a task and closing your laptop, on the Claude plan you may already have.

“A cloud session is a Claude Code session that runs on cloud infrastructure instead of on your machine,” say Anthropic’s docs. “The session keeps running after you close your laptop, and you can check on it or steer it from any device.” You start one at claude.ai/code, in the Claude apps or with claude --cloud, and “each --cloud command creates its own cloud session that runs independently.” GitHub Actions lets you “Mention @claude in a pull request or issue comment to have Claude analyze code, implement changes, and push commits.” Claude Code in Slack turns an @Claude coding task into a cloud session, though on individual plans “only in a Slack workspace that no organization has connected to Claude Tag.”

Price: “Cloud sessions are available on Pro, Max, Ultra, and Team plans,” and “there’s no separate charge for the cloud VM.” Claude’s pricing has Pro at $20 a month, or $17 billed yearly, Max at $100 and Ultra at $200. The free plan doesn’t include Claude Code.

Watch for: “cloud sessions share rate limits with all other Claude and Claude Code usage within your account. Running multiple tasks in parallel consumes more rate limits proportionately.” Cloning in Anthropic’s cloud and opening pull requests “require GitHub.”

Codex

Best for: OpenAI’s models, from the ChatGPT plan you may already have.

“Give Codex coding tasks to work through in the cloud, from investigating bugs to building features,” says OpenAI’s Codex Cloud page. You pick your GitHub repositories for an environment, and each task gets a workspace that “can keep working while your computer is asleep.” You review the changes and test results, ask for follow-ups, and “commit or open a pull request when ready,” from the web, the ChatGPT apps, the CLI or Slack.

Price: OpenAI’s pricing gives Plus, at $20 a month, “Codex on the web, in the CLI, in the IDE extension, and on iOS” and “Cloud-based integrations like automatic code review and Slack integration.” Pro costs $100, $200 or $500, and “Pro plans currently have no five-hour limit.” Free and Go get GPT-6 Luna in the desktop app.

Watch for: “Local messages and cloud chats share your plan’s usage allowance,” and “Cloud tasks may use more of your allowance than local messages.” OpenAI describes Plus as enough to “Power a few focused coding sessions each week.”

Cursor’s cloud agents

Best for: people already in Cursor who want to start a task from Slack, Linear or a comment.

Cursor’s cloud agents “run in isolated VMs in the cloud with full development environments instead of on your local machine.” They clone from GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps or Bitbucket, “work on a separate branch, then push changes to your repo for handoff,” and you start them from Cursor’s iPhone app, the web, the desktop app, Slack, an @cursor comment, Linear or the API.

Price: Cursor’s pricing puts cloud agents in Premium at $30 a month, Super at $100, Ultra at $200 and Teams from $30 a user. Third-party models come “at API list price,” “billed separately by usage.”

Watch for: “Free and Plus don’t include them,” and Premium and up “do not include an allowance for third-party models,” so set a spending limit before you hand them Claude or GPT.

OpenHands

Best for: a free, open-source control center you host yourself, with any model or agent.

OpenHands’ Agent Canvas is “the self-hosted developer control center for coding agents and automations,” says its README. It runs “OpenHands, Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Pi, OpenCode, or any agent with Agent-Client Protocol (ACP),” “with any LLM,” on local, remote or cloud machines, and its automations “integrate with Slack, GitHub, Linear, and more.”

Price: “Open source and free to self-host,” under the MIT license, says its pricing. Teams is $500 a month for up to 10 users, with $50 for each extra seat, and adds multi-user access, budgeting and SSO.

Watch for: you run the machine, and you pay for the models. Installed with npm, there’s no sandbox, and its README warns “the agent will have full access to your filesystem!” Teams “is capped at 5,000 sessions per month.”

Google Antigravity

Best for: Gemini users who want cloud tasks without another subscription.

Antigravity runs agents on your computer, and its remote agents “run your agent sessions and tools in an isolated, Google-managed remote environment,” which “automatically clone and mount your connected repositories.” Work carries on when you close your browser or sleep your laptop.

Price: Google AI Pro is $19.99 a month, and Ultra starts at $99.99. Every account gets “Access to all product features, such as scheduled tasks and the CLI,” and accounts without Pro or Ultra get “A meaningful quota, refreshed weekly,” says its plans page.

Watch for: remote agents are “available to Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra subscribers who sign in with a personal Google Account,” and they’re “rolling out gradually.” Their default preset “runs all commands without restrictions,” and Google’s page doesn’t say whether they open pull requests or how they count against your quota.

Enjoy

Best for: handing work to Claude Code, Codex and other labs’ agents on the plans you already pay for, on a computer of your own.

Enjoy is a desktop app for Mac, Windows and Linux that runs Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build, Antigravity, Muse Code, and local models through OpenCode, each on its own lab’s plan. It doesn’t run Devin. What it offers someone used to handing Devin a task:

• Leave it working. Start a task, then follow it from your phone or any browser. “Work that’s already running keeps going on the computer while your phone is away,” as our guide puts it, and Enjoy keeps the computer from sleeping while agents work. You can run your agents on another computer, such as a Mac mini that stays on at home.
• Switch agents mid-conversation. When one agent is stuck or out of usage, hand the task to another: “The new agent gets the conversation so far, including replies from other agents, before it works on your message.”
• Keep going through limits. When an agent runs out, Enjoy switches to another of your accounts that still has usage, or waits for the limit to reset, then continues.
• Recurring jobs. Scheduled workflows run a task on a timetable, with any of your agents.

Price: Enjoy is one monthly subscription, and the first seven days are free, with a card to start. It includes your phone and any browser and your other computers, and each teammate you invite needs a subscription of their own. See pricing.

Watch for: Enjoy runs nothing in the cloud. The computer doing the work has to be on, online and running Enjoy, and on Windows and Linux, closing its window quits Enjoy and stops the agents. It doesn’t take tasks from Slack, Linear, Jira or GitHub issues. Scheduled workflows run only while your computer is awake with Enjoy open, and “Missed times are skipped, not made up.” Antigravity in Enjoy uses Gemini models. Enjoy isn’t open source, and it’s a monthly subscription on top of your AI plans once the free week ends.

When to stay with Devin

Stay if your team already tags Devin in Slack, Teams, Linear or Jira and its pull requests get merged. Only Factory and Copilot’s cloud agent cover that much of the same ground, and moving means setting up their integrations again. Devin’s Pro plan is also a fair price for what it holds: for $20 a month it includes “access to frontier models from OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and SpaceXAI,” cloud agents and up to 10 sessions at once, and a ChatGPT plan you already have can pay for its GPT models. Devin says “For the majority of users, this quota will be enough to fully cover all agent usage.”

Look elsewhere when its daily and weekly quota runs out most weeks while the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already pay for sits unused, or when your tasks run far past three hours.

How we compared

We read each maker’s homepage, pricing and docs on November 6, 2026, and every one is linked below. We quote their own words for the limits, and we don’t count features a maker hasn’t documented. We didn’t run the same task through each agent, so this guide compares how you give each one work and what it costs, not how well it codes; our guide to the best coding agent compares scores. Cloud agents and their prices change often, so we recheck this guide against its sources at least once a month, and the date at the foot of the page says when we last did.
