Decision reading
SWE-2 is tracked, but not publicly ranked yet. The profile exposes 5 sourced benchmark rows and leaves unsupported fields blank until a published record exists.

Data as of September 10, 2026 · How the score is built

Strongest published evidence

Published rows are visible, but no category has enough eligible evidence for a comparative rank.

Validate before choosing

5 published rows leave some tracked benchmark slots empty. No comparable first-party API token rate is published.

Decision snapshot

Each value carries a field reference instead of floating alone. Markers compare this model with the current ranked and priced catalog; they are not absolute quality thresholds.

How much of this is verified

Coverage is split by category so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means the row is tied to a published source; provisional rows remain visible but separate.

Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. A successor's displayed score stays at least 0.1 points above its predecessor; raw benchmark rows do not move. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track SWE-2, but the public leaderboard excludes this profile until enough non-generated benchmark coverage is available. Only published rows appear above.

SWE-2 is a proprietary model with a 1M context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Released September 10, 2026 as Cognition's most capable coding model, post-trained from Kimi K3 (2.8T parameters) with reinforcement learning that trains the medium, high, and max effort levels in one run. Available in Devin Desktop and Devin CLI at launch and rolling out to Devin Web and Fusion; Cognition has not published a standalone API, pricing, or weights.

Official exact-value snapshot from Cognition's September 10, 2026 SWE-2 launch post. BenchLM maps only the SWE-2 column of Cognition's coding benchmark table: FrontierCode 1.1 Main, Terminal-Bench 2.1, DeepSWE 1.1, and Terminal-Bench 4. Cognition reports the public result where one exists and otherwise an internal Devin CLI run at the best reasoning-effort setting, so every row is provider-run and harness-specific and the model stays out of weighted ranking. The context window is inherited from the Kimi K3 base model because Cognition does not publish a separate figure. Cognition also reports SWE-2 medium taking 58% fewer turns and costing 81% less than SWE-1.7 on FrontierCode 1.1 Main; those efficiency claims stay descriptive.

SWE-2 sits in the SWE family with SWE-1.7. Its explicit predecessor is SWE-1.7. 5 of 434 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Frequently asked questions

How does SWE-2 perform overall in AI benchmarks?

SWE-2 has 5 source-displayable benchmark rows, but it does not qualify for a public overall rank. The available rows remain visible by category without being converted into a site-wide score. Missing evidence stays blank instead of being estimated from an earlier model.

Is SWE-2 good for coding and programming?

SWE-2 has source-displayable benchmark coverage for coding and programming, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is SWE-2 good for agentic tool use and computer tasks?

SWE-2 has source-displayable benchmark coverage for agentic tool use and computer tasks, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Which sibling models are related to SWE-2?

SWE-2 belongs to the SWE family. Related tracked variants include SWE-1.7. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does SWE-2 have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. SWE-2 currently has 5 source-displayable rows across 434 tracked benchmark slots. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of SWE-2?

SWE-2 has a documented context window of 1M. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
