Atmosphere Programming Company Windsurf Launches In - house AI Models
On Thursday, Windsurf, a startup that develops popular AI tools for software engineers, announced the launch of its first series of AI software engineering models, simply called SWE - 1. The company said that the newly launched AI model series is optimized specifically for "the entire software engineering process", not just programming. It is reported that SWE - 1, the largest and most powerful AI model in this series, is competitive in internal programming benchmark tests compared with GPT - 4.1, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and Claude 3.7 Sonnet. However, SWE - 1 seems to be inferior to cutting - edge AI models, such as Claude 3.7 Sonnet, in software engineering tasks. Windsurf said that its SWE - 1 - lite and SWE - 1 - mini models will be available to all users on its platform, including free and paid users, while the SWE - 1 model will be available only to paid users.
