Why not have Devin build it in-house?

You can, if you have the engineers to review, deploy, host, and support what it writes. Writing the code is often the easy part. Structify brings the foundation already built and runs the application on it, so you are not adding a new system to operate each time.

Does Cognition offer an SLA?

Cognition publishes an SLA for Devin itself, a monthly availability target with credits paid in usage when it is missed. It covers the agent, not the applications it writes, which its terms leave to the customer. Structify agrees to an SLA on the application, because it runs the application.

Why does it matter what an application is built from?

An agent that can install anything will reach for whatever fits the task in front of it. Across a dozen applications that becomes a dozen stacks to patch, secure, and explain to an auditor. Structify builds every application from one component library on one foundation, so the controls and the upkeep are the same each time.

Can our engineers use Devin on a Structify application?

Yes. Applications are client-owned code, so your team can change them with the tools they already use. The foundation underneath, sign-in, permissions, audit logs, and deployment, stays the same.

STRUCTIFY VS DEVIN

Structify vs Devin

Devin is Cognition's AI software engineer. In Cognition's words, it plans, writes, tests, and ships production code on its own, working inside your codebase and the tools your team already uses. Each session gets its own machine with a shell, a browser, and an editor, and engineering teams at banks, carmakers, and software companies use it at scale.

It is built to make an engineering organization faster. What it hands back is code. Where that code runs, who keeps it running, what it was built from, and who answers when it goes down are still decisions for the team that merged it.

DEVIN: An AI engineer that writes code and hands back changes for your team to review and ship.
STRUCTIFY: Applications built on one foundation and run by the company that built them.

ASKED IN PLAIN ENGLISH

“Check every incoming purchase order against the quote and flag the ones that do not match.”

Built from the same components as every other application, with sign-in, permissions, and audit logs underneath, deployed and run by Structify under an SLA.

Structify builds the application on the foundation it already runs, and stands behind it once it is live.

WHERE THEY DIFFER

Devin writes code for you to run. Structify builds the application and runs it.

Built for
DEVIN
Engineering teams with a codebase, a deployment pipeline, and people on call for what they ship.
STRUCTIFY
Operations, finance, and leadership at a company that needs applications, with or without a software team.
Where the application runs
DEVIN
On your infrastructure. Devin works in your codebase and your team merges and ships through its own pipeline. Cognition's own hosting is for prototypes and demos, and is switched off for enterprise accounts.
STRUCTIFY
On the Structify foundation, deployed multi-tenant, single tenant, GovCloud, or on premise, and run by Structify.
Who stands behind it
DEVIN
Cognition's SLA covers Devin's own availability. Its terms make the output the customer's responsibility to evaluate and disclaim liability for what follows from it.
STRUCTIFY
Structify agrees to an SLA on the applications it builds and runs, because it owns the foundation they run on.
What the agent can use
DEVIN
A full machine with internet access, so it can install and use whatever it decides fits the task. Limits are policies your administrators write and maintain.
STRUCTIFY
One component library and one stack. Sign-in, permissions, audit logs, and deployment are fixed layers the AI builds on, not code it writes.
Regulated work
DEVIN
Cognition's terms ask customers not to use the service for activities subject to ITAR, and Devin's planning always runs in Cognition's cloud, even when its machines sit in your network.
STRUCTIFY
Built for ITAR and CMMC Level 2 work, with GovCloud and air-gapped on-premise deployments available.
After launch
DEVIN
Each application is maintained by whoever owns it, on whatever libraries and services it was built with, one stack per project.
STRUCTIFY
Every application is built and deployed the same way on the same foundation, so ten applications are maintained like one.

WHICH ONE

Choose the starting point that fits the work.

When Devin is the right call

You have an engineering team, and the work is shipping changes to software you already build and run.
You have a deployment pipeline, an on-call rotation, and standards your engineers already enforce.
Your code does not touch ITAR-controlled data.

When Structify is the right call

You need applications on your ERP, MES, and quality data, and no software team to host and maintain them.
You want someone to agree to an SLA on the application, not just on the tool that wrote it.
You work under ITAR, CMMC, or another regime that decides where your data and your AI can run.
You want every application built the same way, so the tenth is as easy to maintain as the first.
