Introducing our new family of models: SWE-1, SWE-1-lite, and SWE-1-mini. Based on internal evals, it has performance nearing that of frontier models from the foundation labs.
Just dropped something big — Windsurf Wave 9 with the new SWE-1 models!
These AI models are built to help with real engineering work — not just writing code. You’ve got three options:
✅ SWE-1: Super powerful for heavy, complex tasks
✅ SWE-1 Lite: Lighter and faster for everyday dev work
✅ SWE-1 Mini: Blazing fast for when speed really matters
They’re all built into the Windsurf Editor, making things like debugging and code generation way easier. It’s like having an extra set of smart hands helping out.

I haven't seen any model designed specifically for engineering. Sounds very promising. Is it live yet? I'd like to try it out.
Impressive launch. Congratulations. We recently launched Mukh.1, a no-code platform for AI workflows and agents. Check it out.
This tool looks super powerful! I’m curious, can these three SWE-1 models be seamlessly switched during use? For example, if I’m working on a complex task with SWE-1 but need to quickly handle a simpler one, can I directly switch to SWE-1 Mini?
