Devin Desktop (formerly Windsurf)
Windsurf is now Devin Desktop. Review the current editor and agent workspace, how the naming change affects existing users and which unified Devin plan fits your coding work.
Description
What is Devin Desktop?
Devin Desktop is the current name for Windsurf. It keeps the editor foundation while bringing agent management into the foreground. Existing users should follow the official editor migration instructions rather than treating it as a completely unrelated product. This directory entry uses the current name and keeps the older one visible for readers.
How it helps
The AI coding editor combines project editing with an agent workspace. With Devin Desktop, multi-agent coding can help organise several tasks, but each task still needs clear scope. Keep the working branch and expected checks visible so parallel activity does not turn into unrelated edits that are difficult to review.
Treat the rename as a migration
Existing users should follow the official upgrade instructions and check that editor settings, extensions and shortcuts still work as expected. Keep a backup before making a major change. The current name sits within a wider product offering, so compare the Desktop-specific workflow rather than assuming an older review of the previous brand describes all current interfaces and billing rules.
A simple example
For example, use Devin Desktop for a small dashboard where one agent investigates a failing test and another prepares a documentation update. The agent command centre can help organise that work. Review the two changes separately and check that the documentation reflects the final code rather than an earlier plan.
Use separate tasks for separate changes
The agent workspace is most useful when each job has a clear owner and scope. Keep a bug fix, a test update and a documentation change as distinct tasks when they can be reviewed independently. Parallel work is less helpful if several agents change the same files without coordination. Review the final combined state, because two individually sensible changes can still conflict.
Setup and limits
Check coding plan quotas and repository setup before moving a project into Devin Desktop. The Devin development app uses current Devin access and billing, not an old Windsurf pricing table. Confirm model availability, included capacity and any additional usage charges in the account. Keep a backup of settings when following the official migration path.
Keep the editor as a review tool
Use familiar file navigation, the terminal and version-control views to inspect what changed. Check whether the agent preserved formatting and project conventions as well as the functional result. Do not accept a large dependency or configuration change simply because it arrived alongside the fix you asked for. A clear explanation of why each file changed makes ongoing maintenance easier.
Devin Desktop pricing
| Plan / route | Monthly or usage price | Annual option | Included use | Extra costs / conditions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Annual price not confirmed; check checkout | Limited agents/models; unlimited inline edits and Tab completions listed | Not the same capacity as a paid plan. |
| Pro | $20/month | Annual price not confirmed; check checkout | Higher allowance and eligible cloud workflows | Paid extra use can be purchased at API pricing. |
| Max | $200/month | Annual price not confirmed; check checkout | Higher usage than Pro | Daily/weekly allowance conditions apply. |
| Team | $80/month base + $40/month per full development seat | Contract-dependent | Shared work and central billing; up to 200 users listed | A seat charge is additional to the base plan. |
| Enterprise | Sales quote | Contract-dependent | Organisation controls and support | Use contract terms for final billing. |
These are current unified Devin prices, not historical Windsurf prices. For two full development seats, the listed Team formula gives $160/month before tax; that is a calculation from $80 + 2 × $40.
Calculate a team’s full charge
The current Team price has a base amount and an additional charge per full development seat. Compare the total for the number of people who will actually use the product. Included usage can also differ from extra API-priced consumption. For an individual, assess the Free or Pro allowance first, then consider Max when normal measured work reaches limits frequently enough to justify the larger subscription.
Who should use it?
Devin Desktop fits developers who want an editor and a place to manage coding agents together. Start with a familiar project and one defined task. Check that the editor settings, extensions and repository workflow you rely on still work, then decide whether the wider agent workspace adds value to your normal development process.
Common questions
Should the old Windsurf page be a duplicate listing?
Use the current Desktop identity and explain the former name. Your site already has a general Devin profile, so keep a clearly different Desktop scope or update existing coverage instead of publishing a second broad product introduction.
Does the Team base price include every seat?
No. The current formula adds a per-full-development-seat charge to the base plan. The pricing table separates those amounts so the total can be calculated for the intended team size.
Check the official pricing and access details before choosing a plan.
