How Cognition gives Devin developers a live API playground inside the docs

Talk to our team
Cognition

Cognition is the AI lab behind Devin, the world's first autonomous AI software engineer, and grew from $1M to $73M in ARR in under a year.

Devin introduces developers to a new model of building software, making clear, intuitive onboarding essential to product adoption.

Challenge

Cognition's documentation needed to match the forward-looking experience of its product. Onboarding developers to Devin required guides that felt as intuitive and innovative as the tool itself, and traditional documentation systems weren't built to keep pace.

Solution

Cognition launched its documentation on Mintlify with easy-to-navigate guides, an AI assistant that delivers instant contextual answers, and an interactive API playground where developers can explore and test Devin's APIs directly in the docs. Pre-built components handle release notes, so the team doesn't have to build its own changelog. As Mintlify ships capabilities like llms.txt and MCP servers, Cognition's documentation stays as current as its product.
