Windsurf, the AI editor formerly known as Codeium, has since been folded into Cognition's Devin Desktop, and windsurf.com now redirects there (checked September 2026). Its Cascade agent planned and executed multi-step coding tasks with an emphasis on keeping the developer oriented as changes flowed.
Visit Windsurf (now Devin Desktop) →Agentic coding with a gentler learning curve. Cascade's flows show what the agent intends before it acts, which suits developers who found rival agents too eager. The free tier is generous, and enterprise deployments (including self-hosted) predate most competitors'.
Meaningful free tier; paid plans are subscription plus usage credits for heavy agent work.
The product no longer exists under its own name: Windsurf's editor and Cascade agent now live inside Devin Desktop, so anyone comparing it against Cursor or Copilot is really comparing Devin's desktop app. A turbulent corporate history has moved the product between owners, and long-term direction is harder to predict than for its rivals. Raw model quality tracks the same frontier APIs everyone uses — the differences are workflow, not intelligence.
