What is Replit?
Replit is a cloud development platform built around Replit Agent, an AI assistant that turns a plain-language description into a working app, website, slide deck or internal tool. The page describes the Agent as a system where the main model chooses its own subagents and effort level for each step, and the company says it routes tasks between models automatically. Projects can be connected to Databases (including Databricks Lakebase), integrations, preview deploys and security tools such as black-box pen testing.
In practice you can create and launch apps, sites, dashboards, chatbots and prototypes, then manage them with enterprise governance features, collaborators and database rollback. The homepage also mentions interactive charts in chat for business analysis, following the acquisition of Atta. Pricing is set around credits for AI usage, with Core and Pro plans and a custom Enterprise tier.
