Cognition's SWE-2 achieves 92.8 on Terminal-Bench 2.1
Cognition releases SWE-2, a 2.8T-parameter MoE coding model post-trained from Kimi K3, scoring 92.8 on Terminal-Bench 2.1.
SWE-2 is a proprietary mixture-of-experts model with 2.8T total parameters and 104B active per token, built on the Kimi K3 base with additional Cognition reinforcement-learning post-training for agentic coding. Vendor-reported benchmarks include FrontierCode 1.1 Main 50.0, DeepSWE 1.1 73.0, Terminal-Bench 2.1 92.8, and Terminal-Bench 4.0 27.3. It claims to be one point behind Claude Fable 5.1 on FrontierCode at a claimed 64% lower cost, but trails Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra by a wide margin on long-horizon Terminal-Bench 4.0 tasks. The model is available today in Devin Desktop and CLI, with no published weights, no per-token API pricing, and all figures pending independent replication.
