Billing and Procurement

How usage measurement, billing, and procurement work for Devin federal customers and public sector agencies.

This documentation is for the federal deployments of Devin. Back to Devin Docs

We offer both usage-based pricing for access to the Cognition platform and firm-fixed-price (FFP) contracts for delivering mission outcomes.

---

Usage

This is for customers that want to procure access to the platform for their engineers and/or their mission partner engineers.

Usage-based pricing is shared across all deployments and products on the Cognition platform. For example, you can seamlessly move between a commercial and federal deployment, or from Devin Cloud to Devin Desktop. Usage is measured in Agent Compute Units (ACUs), which represent how much actual work the agent is doing. The price of each ACU depends on the deployment level. For example, IL5 is more expensive than FedRAMP High. A more detailed breakdown of what contributes to usage can be found here.

Many customers have existing purchase agreements with CSPs like AWS, Azure, and Google. We do not want customers to pay twice for intelligence. Thus, customers are able to burn down their CSP commitments with their existing accounts through utilization of Devin.

Firm-fixed-price

This is for customers that want to procure the completion and delivery of a mission outcome on firm-fixed-price basis, regardless of how much compute or labor is spent by Cognition.

The combination of our platform, deployed engineers, and partnerships with federal solution providers, allows us to not only provide a developer tool, but to deliver mission outcomes faster, better, and cheaper than ever before.

In each firm-fixed price contract, Cognition will provide a Scope of Work that specifies the the mission outcome, SLAs, and hand-off terms. Cognition will also budget a number of ACUs and man-hours required to execute the scope of work.

Following delivery, if there are any leftover ACUs, they will be credited back to the customer under regular usage-based-pricing terms.

Billing

We offer a number of purchase options, ranging from marketplaces to contract vehicles like NASA SEWP V and ITES-SW2 through partners like Carahsoft. Please contact [e-mail] to get started!
