Key Features

• SWE-1 AI Model Family: Includes SWE-1 (advanced reasoning and tool use for paid users), SWE-1-lite (smaller model for all users), and SWE-1-mini (fast, passive code prediction for all users).
• Flow Awareness: AI and human developers collaborate on a shared timeline, enabling context-aware assistance and continuous model improvement.
• Full Software Engineering Workflow Support: Beyond code generation, supports multi-file editing, bug fixing, code review, and project context maintenance.
• Seamless Integration: Works within existing developer workflows and tools, enhancing productivity without di

Use Cases

• A software engineering team at a large enterprise is developing a complex, multi-module application requiring coordination across multiple developers and tools. Using Windsurf’s SWE-1 model, the team benefits from AI assistance that understands the entire development context, suggests coherent multi-file code changes, helps with bug fixes, and maintains project continuity over time. This reduces development cycles, decreases onboarding time for new team members, and lowers technical debt, enabling faster and more confident software delivery.
