Devin token usage

Devin token usage is not one dashboard. Desktop shows quota, credits, or ACUs in Plan Info; cloud shows ACUs per session; enterprise teams pull APIs.

Hub: Tokenminning in Devin.

ACUs vs credits vs quota

UnitMeaning
ACUsAgent Compute Units — inference + actions + some VM time (cloud + enterprise desktop)
Legacy creditsOften one credit per user message on premium Cascade models, regardless of tool calls in that turn
Self-serve quotaIncluded tokens then on-demand rates — see Plans and Usage 

Read the column your Plan Info screen actually shows — do not assume ACUs on a credit plan.

Token groups (desktop)

When your plan exposes breakdowns:

GroupHigh value means
InputRules, MCP, index bloat
Cache writeLarge first message or tool results
Cache readThread too long — new conversation
OutputThinking models, verbose diffs, loops

Adaptive  self-serve rates (through July 7, 2026): ~0.50/Minput,0.50/M input, 2.00/M output, $0.10/M cache read — routes simple work to cheaper models underneath.

Enterprise APIs

Devin auth token for metering (not your Git PAT):

Rotate API keys on the same schedule as CI secrets.

Cloud vs desktop

Desktop inference bills like other IDE agents. Cloud ACUs add VM time, browser actions, and scoped-task overhead — meter separately.

After a heavy week

  1. Plan Info or Session Insights — which surface moved?
  2. Token group or ACU category — input vs output?
  3. Open the matching spoke: rules, MCP, Devin Local, cloud.
