Cognition to Measure Engineer Efficiency in AI Agent Devin Usage

Cognition, the startup behind AI coding agent Devin, is adding a metric that measures how efficiently each engineer uses AI. The system estimates the equivalent human hours for a Devin session and divides that by the session's cost, letting companies allocate more resources to their most efficient employees.

• Cognition measures engineer efficiency through sessions in AI agent Devin
• Metric divides equivalent human hours by the cost of the session
• AI usage limits will become dynamic rather than static
• Companies can direct more resources to their most efficient employees
