The Tensol advantage
Frequently asked questions
Is Tensol an alternative to Devin?
They solve different problems. Devin writes code autonomously. Tensol AI engineering employees monitor your engineering tools (Sentry, GitHub, Linear), triage bugs, correlate errors with deploys, and keep your team in sync. Think of Devin as an AI coder and Tensol as an AI engineering ops team member.
Can Tensol write code like Devin?
Tensol is not designed to write code. Instead, Tensol AI employees handle the operational side of engineering: monitoring errors, creating and updating tickets, surfacing context about bugs, and alerting the right people. This complements tools like Devin.
Should I use Tensol or Devin for my engineering team?
Use both. Devin can write and ship code. Tensol AI employees can monitor for errors after deployment, triage issues, gather context from across your tools, and notify the team. They address different parts of the engineering workflow.
