What is SWE-1.5
SWE-1.5 is a high-performance AI coding model designed specifically for software engineering, launched by AI unicorn Cognition. With tens of billions of parameters, it has coding capabilities close to the state of the art, while achieving a major breakthrough in speed, with an inference speed of up to 950 tokens/second, 6 times faster than Haiku 4.5 and 13 times faster than Sonnet 4.5. It is currently available in the Windsurf code editor. Through cooperation with Cerebras, the model optimizes the entire system, including the model, inference, and agent framework, to achieve a unified combination of speed and intelligence. During development, Cognition adopted end-to-end reinforcement learning, combined with a high-fidelity coding environment and a custom evaluation mechanism, to ensure the model's performance on real tasks. SWE-1.5 introduces "reward hardening" technology, using tests by human experts to improve the model's robustness.
