Is SWE 2.0 no longer free after 10/16? Without a free replacement, how is the Devin subscription supposed to be usable?
Am I understanding correctly that SWE 2.0 will no longer be free after October 16? Is another model going to replace it as the free option, or is free model access going away entirely?
I’m asking because, in my experience, just a few prompts can blow through both the daily and weekly usage limits. It’s not just a matter of waiting until tomorrow, if the weekly allowance is also exhausted, I’m effectively stuck until that resets too.
That makes it difficult to use Devin for actual development work. A task isn’t always one prompt and a finished result. You often need to explain the problem, review the changes, test them, and ask for corrections. If the allowance is gone after just a few interactions, I can hit the limits before getting a working result.
The free model option is what makes those limits somewhat manageable for me, because I can keep working instead of abandoning a task halfway through. Without a free replacement for SWE 2.0, I’m struggling to see how the subscription would remain useful for my workflow.
I don’t expect unlimited access to every model, but I do expect a paid subscription to provide enough usable capacity to get meaningful work done. If a few prompts can exhaust both limits and there’s no fallback, Devin becomes practically unusable for me. At that point, I’d probably cancel rather than keep paying for something I spend most of the week unable to use.
Could someone from Cognition clarify:
- Is October 16 actually the end of free SWE 2.0 access?
- Will another free model replace it?
- If not, will the daily and weekly allowances change to make up for losing that option?
Is anyone else running into the same issue with a small number of prompts consuming most or all of their allowance?
