Cognition announced its expansion into Latin America, with São Paulo as the starting point. The company highlighted that major regional institutions including Itaú, Nubank, Santander, Natura, and EBANX are already using Devin, with Itaú reporting a 20-30% increase in engineering throughput and Nubank completing a multi-million-line monolith migration in weeks at over 20x lower cost.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://cognition.com/blog/devin-comes-to-sao-paulo:

> Today, more than 75% of Itaú's technology teams use Devin: documenting 300,000+ repositories, migrating legacy .NET services to Java 6x faster, and resolving roughly 70% of security vulnerabilities automatically. Bank-wide, Itaú has seen a 20-30% increase in engineering throughput.
