Plans and quotas checked Oct 28, 2026 on Devin’s pricing page, Devin’s self-serve billing docs and Devin’s quota docs. Model list and per-token rates checked Oct 21, 2026 in Devin’s models docs. Every source is listed at the bottom. No affiliate links on this page (how we work).

Short answer: Max costs 10x Pro and Devin won’t tell you how much more quota that buys. Pro is $20 a month with a daily and a weekly allowance. Max is $200 a month with “significantly higher quotas”, a weekly allowance only and no daily cap. Same models, same 10 concurrent sessions, same single seat. The only published difference is the size and shape of the quota, and the size is the part Devin keeps to itself (all checked Oct 28, 2026).

So this isn’t a features decision. It’s a math decision. And the math has one fixed number in it: $180, the gap between the two plans.

Everything below comes from Devin’s own pricing page and docs, dated.

Quick answer

Pick Pro ($20) if you use Devin most days but rarely run out. If you do run out, extra usage at API prices keeps you going, and those credits never expire.
Pick Max ($200) if you regularly spend close to $180 a month on Pro’s extra usage, or if Pro’s daily cap keeps stopping you mid-task before your weekly quota is gone.
Stay on Free while you’re still deciding whether agent work is for you. You get a “Light quota” and limited models.
Need teammates on one bill? Neither. Pro and Max are single-user plans; that’s what Devin pricing covers under Teams.

Free, Pro and Max side by side

Plan	Price	Quota	Overage
Free	$0	Light quota	Wait for reset
Pro	$20/mo	Daily + weekly	API pricing
Max	$200/mo	Weekly, no daily cap	API pricing

What’s identical on Pro and Max, per the same pages:

One member each. “The Pro and Max plans are individual plans. They cannot be shared across multiple users.”
Concurrent sessions: “Up to 10” on both.
Coverage: the quota covers Devin sessions, Devin CLI and Devin Desktop on both.
Extras: Devin Cloud agents, “Full model availability”, and “Free use of SWE-2” are on Pro, and Max is “Everything in Pro, plus: Significantly higher quotas”.

That’s the whole Max card. One line.

The quota: daily plus weekly on Pro, weekly only on Max

Here’s how the two plans differ, in Devin’s words (self-serve billing docs, verified Oct 28, 2026):

Pro: “A daily and weekly usage quota that covers Devin sessions, Devin CLI, and Devin Desktop.”
Max: “for individual users who consistently exceed the Pro quota”, with “a significantly larger weekly usage quota (with no daily cap)”.
The Pro daily cap is bigger than a seventh: “The daily allowance is more than 1/7 of the weekly, so you can keep working through weekends without giving up overall capacity for the week.”

What Devin doesn’t publish: the quota size in dollars, tokens or messages on any plan, and the multiple between Pro and Max. There’s no “5x” or “10x” like Claude’s Max and Ultra plans use (see Claude Max vs Ultra for how Anthropic labels its tiers). On Oct 28, 2026, “significantly higher” was the only word on offer.

Two things you can work out from that wording:

The daily cap is Pro’s real constraint for bursty work. If you do a whole week of agent work on Saturday, Pro’s daily cap stops you before the weekly quota runs out. Max has no daily cap, so one big day can use as much of the week as you want.
If you spread work evenly, the daily cap rarely matters, because it’s set above a seventh of the weekly quota. Then the only question is whether the weekly total is enough.

Both quotas drain by tokens, not prompts. “Your budget is based on how many tokens the model uses for each request. The cost per token varies by model, and free models don’t count against your quota at all” (quota docs, verified Oct 28, 2026). The details, including resets and where the meter lives, are in Devin usage limits.

Past the quota: same API pricing on both

Running out works the same on both plans. “Pro, Teams, or Max: Purchase extra usage to keep working without interruption.” Extra usage is “billed at API list prices for the model you’re using, based on how many tokens the model uses for each request” (quota docs, verified Oct 28, 2026).

The billing docs add the parts that make Pro plus top-ups friendlier than it sounds (self-serve billing docs, verified Oct 28, 2026):

Credits keep: on-demand credits “Roll over month-to-month. Purchased credits never expire.”
Auto-reload is optional, and admins can set “default session spending limits from Settings > Usage & limits”.
Your ChatGPT plan can pay for GPT models: with an eligible ChatGPT Go, Plus or Pro subscription, “you can also use your ChatGPT plan to pay for GPT model usage so it doesn’t count against your Devin allowance.”

One cost trap applies to both plans: “Priority and speed configurations (e.g., SWE-1.5 Fast, fast Opus variants) will increase the cost” (quota docs). A fast model can burn through quota or credits quicker.

Models per plan

There’s nothing to choose between Pro and Max on models. The gap is between Free and paid:

Plan	Models
Free	Limited (SWE-1.6 only)
Pro	Full model availability
Max	Same as Pro

Sources: Devin pricing, verified Oct 28, 2026 (“Limited model availability” on Free, “Full model availability” on Pro, Max is “Everything in Pro”); models docs, verified Oct 21, 2026 (“Free tier users only have access to SWE-1.6”).

Pro’s card describes that as “access to frontier models from OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and SpaceXAI, plus leading open source models”. On the models page (Oct 21, 2026), self-serve list prices per 1M tokens included Claude Opus 5.5 at $4 input / $20 output and Claude Sonnet 5.5 at $2 / $10. Those are the rates your extra usage is billed at.

SWE-2 is free until Nov 30, 2026. The pricing page has a banner, “SWE-2, our latest model, is now available”, and Pro still says “Free use of SWE-2” (Oct 28). Devin’s models docs now spell it out: “SWE-2 is free for self-serve plans in Devin Desktop and Devin CLI through November 30, 2026; it does not apply to Devin cloud sessions.” List price after that is $3.00 / $15.00 / $0.30 cache per 1M (checked Oct 28, 2026). That matters more on Max, where you’d run SWE-2 hardest: from Dec 1 it starts drawing on quota at list price.

Charging $200 a month for a plan whose only listed benefit is “significantly higher quotas”, with no multiple, no number, and no example, is a frustrating call. Anthropic and GitHub at least say 5x, 20x or a credit count. Devin’s buyers have to pay $200 to find out what $200 buys.

Pro plus extra usage vs Max: the $180 test

The only published numbers are the two prices, so here’s the arithmetic they support:

Max minus Pro = $180 a month. That’s how much extra usage you can buy on Pro before it costs more than Max in dollars.
What $180 buys at list price (models docs rates, Oct 21, 2026): 9M output tokens on Claude Opus 5.5 at $20 per 1M, or 45M input tokens at $4 per 1M, or a mix. Real sessions mix input, cached input and output, so treat those as bounds, not a forecast.
For scale: Devin’s own quota docs walk through one Claude Opus 4.6 refactor conversation that adds up to 200k tokens across eight steps. It’s an example of how context grows, not a price.

What the arithmetic can’t tell you is how much of that $180 Max’s bigger quota actually covers, because the quota size isn’t published. So the honest test is your own meter:

Stay on Pro for a full month.
Add up what you spent on extra usage.
If it’s under $180 and falling, stay. If it’s at or over $180 most months, or Pro’s daily cap stops you on your heavy days, try Max for one month and compare.

And because Pro’s credits “never expire”, money you put into overage isn’t wasted if you switch later. Devin’s billing docs say you can “Upgrade or downgrade between Free, Pro, Max, and Teams” from Settings > Plans. Whether that’s prorated isn’t published, so check at checkout before you switch mid-cycle.

Here’s what I’d do

Most solo developers: Pro. Watch the meter, keep a small credit balance, and use smaller models for routine work. Devin’s own FAQ suggests “mini models like Haiku, GPT 5.2 Mini, and open source models like Kimi K2.5” to make the allowance last.

Heavy days, quiet days: if Pro’s daily cap is what stops you, not the weekly one, Max fixes exactly that. It’s the clearest case for Max.

Already paying for ChatGPT Go, Plus or Pro: connect it before upgrading. GPT usage then stops counting against your Devin allowance, which might be all the headroom you needed.

Choosing between Devin and something else at $200: that’s a different question. Read Devin vs Claude Code and AI coding tools compared.

FAQ

What’s the difference between Devin Pro and Max? Pro is $20 a month with a daily and weekly quota; Max is $200 a month with a “significantly larger” weekly-only quota and no daily cap, and the rest (models, 10 concurrent sessions, one user) is the same, per Devin’s pages on Oct 28, 2026.

Is Devin Max worth it? Only if you’d otherwise spend about $180 a month or more on Pro’s extra usage, or Pro’s daily cap keeps stopping you, because Devin doesn’t publish how much more quota Max gives.

Does Devin Pro have a weekly limit? Yes, Pro has both a daily and a weekly allowance, and the daily one is “more than 1/7 of the weekly”, per Devin’s billing docs on Oct 28, 2026.

Is Devin free to use? Yes, Devin’s Free plan is $0 with a “Light quota”, limited models (SWE-1.6 only per the models docs on Oct 21, 2026) and unlimited Tab completions and inline edits.
