Infosys Ltd has entered into a strategic collaboration with US-based artificial intelligence firm Cognition to deploy Devin, an AI software engineer, across its internal engineering operations and client engagements worldwide.
The partnership aims to accelerate software development cycles, boost engineering productivity and reduce time-to-market for enterprise solutions, the Indian IT services firm said.
Under the agreement announced on Wednesday, 7 January, Devin will be integrated with Infosys Topaz Fabric, a multi-layer AI services platform that unifies infrastructure, data, models, applications and workflows.
Infosys said it has been using Devin internally for the past six months and has seen significant improvements in software quality and operational efficiency.
Infosys and Cognition plan to embed Devin within client delivery models, enable deployment inside customer engineering environments and co-develop shared engineering frameworks and enablement programmes to support cross-industry adoption.
The combined platform is expected to automate brownfield engineering tasks, address technical debt and support large-scale modernisation initiatives.
Industry-specific solutions and AI-native modernization frameworks will be jointly developed to support secure and enterprise-grade use, Infosys said.
“By combining Infosys’ deep industry expertise with our platform, we are enabling clients to dramatically accelerate time-to-market, enhance ROI and unlock a new era of engineering transformation,” Scott Wu, founder and chief executive of Cognition, said.
The company’s financial services business will lead the initial client deployments, using Devin across banking, payments, capital markets, insurance and wealth management engagements.
Infosys chief executive Salil Parekh said the partnership would help “accelerate AI-driven value creation for global clients” by combining Cognition’s autonomous engineering technology with Infosys’ industry expertise and delivery capabilities.
