Full Comparison
| Criterion | Devin | OpenHands |
|---|---|---|
| Starting price | Free tier; Pro $20 / month Pro is for a single developer, with daily and weekly usage quotas plus pay-as-you-go credits. Max $200 per month, Teams from $80 per month ($40 per full seat). Enterprise is billed by consumption in Agent Compute Units. | Free, open source (MIT) The hosted Individual plan is free with up to 10 conversations per day; models are billed through your own key or the OpenHands provider at cost. Enterprise is priced on request. |
| Free trial | Free tier | Free and open source; hosted Individual plan free with up to 10 conversations per day |
| Commercial use | Yes | Yes |
| Output | Autonomous coding, from ticket to pull request | Autonomous agents that plan, edit, run and test code |
| API | Yes, the Devin API | Yes, REST and WebSocket APIs through the Agent Server |
| Hosting | Not stated | Self-hosted locally, in Docker or Kubernetes, or the managed OpenHands Cloud |
| Where it runs | Cloud web app, CLI, Slack and Microsoft Teams, plus an embedded editor (Devin Desktop, the former Windsurf IDE) | Agent Canvas web interface, a terminal CLI, a Python, TypeScript and REST SDK, self-hosted Agent and Sandbox servers, or the managed OpenHands Cloud |
| Inline completions | No, Devin works asynchronously as an agent rather than as an inline autocomplete | No, an agent platform rather than an inline autocomplete tool |
| Agent mode | Yes, an autonomous agent that plans, writes, runs and tests code in its own cloud environment and opens pull requests | Yes, that is the product: agents that plan, edit, run and test code, with automations that decompose GitHub issues into tasks |
| Model choice | Yes, models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and Cognition plus open-source options, set with a --model flag, a /model command mid-session or a config file; the Adaptive router can pick per task instead | Model-agnostic through LiteLLM, with provider guides for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, AWS Bedrock, Azure and OpenRouter, plus local open-weight models |
| Data control | SOC 2 Type II, encrypted in transit and at rest; paid plans can opt out of training, which also switches on zero data retention, and enterprise agreements exclude training without written consent. Devin Outposts runs sessions on your own infrastructure | Runs on your own machine or in your own VPC when self-hosted; Enterprise adds SAML and SSO, multi-user RBAC and auditability |
| Ecosystem fit | Integrates with GitHub, Linear, Jira, Slack and Microsoft Teams | Git integrations plus Jira and Slack, and interoperability with agents that speak the Agent Client Protocol |
| Deployment | Cloud (SaaS), Browser-based | more entries Cloud (SaaS), Browser-based, On-premise |
| Support | Not stated | Community forum |

The trade-offs
Strengths and Limitations
Devin
Strengths
- Works asynchronously in the cloud, so it can run tasks without occupying your editor
- Takes whole tickets end to end, from Linear or Jira through to a pull request
- Reachable from Slack, Teams, a CLI, a web app and an API, not only an IDE
Limitations
- Consumption-based ACU billing makes heavy use harder to predict than a flat seat price
- Aimed at delegable, self-contained tasks rather than interactive pair programming
OpenHands
Strengths
- Open source under MIT, so it can be self-hosted, audited and modified
- Model-agnostic through LiteLLM, including local open-weight models
- One agent available as a web interface, a CLI, an SDK and a hosted cloud service
Limitations
- No inline code completion; it is an agent platform, not an editor assistant
- Self-hosting means supplying and paying for your own model access
- The free hosted tier is capped at 10 conversations per day
