Use case overview

Answer.AI testers found Devin completed only 3 of 20 tasks, succeeding at moving Notion data to Google Sheets and building a planet tracker.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    Three Answer.AI data scientists (Hamel Husain, Isaac Flath, Johno Whitaker) gave Devin 20 tasks. Devin takes commands through Slack and works in a Docker container with a terminal, browser, code editor and planner. Early tasks included pulling data from a Notion database into Google Sheets and building a planet tracker for checking historical Jupiter and Saturn positions.

  2. How it went

    Devin finished 3 of 20 tasks: the Notion-to-Sheets move, the planet tracker, and a Discord bot research task. Three were inconclusive and 14 failed. Simple-looking tasks often took days, and it was hard to predict which would work.

  3. Worth knowing

    Devin starts at $500 per month. It kept pushing on impossible tasks, such as a Railway deployment, for over a day instead of stopping, so set time limits.

Example prompts

Try with Devin
Pull the data from my Notion database [database name or link] into a new Google Sheet, with one column per Notion property and one row per entry. Keep the Sheet in a shared location I can open, and tell me the link when the row count in the Sheet matches the Notion database. Ask me before overwriting or deleting anything that already exists.
