Replit

AI models are now capable and affordable enough to make once-unreachable outcomes practical. The opportunity for everyone to pursue and collaborate on ambitious ideas, spend less time on busywork, and raise the quality and creative output across disciplines is nearly here. The possibility is here. But for most people, the reality is not. Replit users are already building million-dollar businesses, replacing legacy software and saving hundreds of thousands of dollars, and increasing their everyday potential by creating high-quality software, designs, slides, and more.

The industrial space on the Lower East Side was completely transformed. Raw concrete and exposed beams were saturated with vibrant color and pulsing lights, while deep house grooves thumped through the room. Orange bean bags dotted the floor, installations glowed in every corner, and the whole place felt alive with that unmistakable opening-night rush. Artists, filmmakers, designers, musicians, founders, and engineers descended for two days. And the crowd was the act. All around the room, people were vibe coding ideas into real things you could hold, wear, and walk out the door with. At Tigri...

Defense in Depth: How Replit Secures Every Layer of the Vibe Coding Stack Vibe coding is changing how software gets built. But as AI agents write more of our code, the question security teams are asking has shifted from "Can AI build this?" to "Can I trust what AI builds?". At Replit, we believe the answer has to be yes, not through blind faith, but through architecture. Every layer of the Replit infrastructure where customer code runs, from the development sandbox to the production deployment, is designed with defense in depth. The Replit platform itself, our control plane, is also implement...

This is part 5 of a 6-part series we’re running about how product managers are using AI tools and vibe coding. Written by and for product managers. Summary Product managers spend as much time launching a feature as building it, across disconnected tools. Every tool switch adds hidden costs: reformatting time, mismatched design tokens, lost context, and delayed alignment. Replit Agent 4 generates stakeholder decks, live dashboards, and animations directly from your existing project.

This is part 4 of a 6-part series we’re running about how product managers are using AI tools and vibe coding. Written by and for product managers. Summary Requirements docs, decks, and tickets go stale because PMs update them by hand. Agentic workflows fix the source of that problem, not the symptoms. When the prototype is the source of truth, the artifacts around it — briefs, criteria, decks — update as the product changes, not after. Replit Agent 4 runs tasks in parallel and surfaces results for PM review before anything touches the main project.

This is part 3 of a 6-part series we’re running about how product managers are using AI tools and vibe coding. Written by and for product managers. Summary The design handoff bottleneck costs PMs days per feature, adding weeks of lag to product development cycles each quarter. Two types of design work exist — exploratory direction-setting and production refinement — and PMs are already equipped to own the first. A 90-minute vibe coding design sprint helps PMs generate, compare, and converge on a direction before involving the design team.

This is part 2 of a 6-part series we’re running about how product managers are using AI tools and vibe coding. Written by and for product managers. Summary Traditional prototyping workflows cost PMs weeks per round-trip, delaying the user signal that only working software produces. Every handoff to design, engineering, and QA introduces translation loss that compounds before a prototype reaches testing. AI-integrated workflows cut translation points by generating interactive prototypes directly from a behavioral brief you write.

This is part 1 of a 6-part series we’re running about how product managers are using AI tools and vibe coding. Written by and for product managers. Summary AI tools for product managers now operate across two layers: a productivity layer and an expanded capability layer. Writing tools like Claude, Notion AI, and Grammarly help you draft PRDs and condense research into clear summaries faster. Research tools like Dovetail and Perplexity surface patterns across interviews and feedback, making continuous discovery more manageable.

Summary Manny (from Replit), and Cong & Denis (from Databricks) walked through our new Replit–Databricks connector, showing how we vibe coded enterprise data apps live. Databricks centralized enterprise data and AI for tens of thousands of customers, so our Replit apps could tap governed tables, models, and warehouses without copying sensitive data around. We used Replit’s Databricks connector to pull real sample datasets into an app, then let the agent vibe code a 3D weather globe that stayed safely inside Databricks. Replit Agent handled the scaffolding and UI while Databricks handled scale...

From idea to app, fast. That's always been our mission at Replit. But what if you could turn your ideas into working apps without knowing how to code at all? Enter vibe coding: a term that's democratizing app creation for everyone, regardless of technical background. What is vibe coding? Vibe coding is a way of building software where you describe what you want in plain language and an AI agent writes the code. You steer the work by trying what it builds and asking for changes, instead of writing every line yourself. The term comes from a February 2025 post by AI researcher Andrej Karpathy. T...

You can find the 3-min quickstart from the video here What is MCP? MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard way to connect AI models to data sources and tools. It allows AI to access information and capabilities beyond what they were originally trained on. MCP works like a universal connector for AI systems. Just as standard ports let different devices work together, MCP lets different AI models connect to the same tools and data sources. This means developers can build a tool once and have it work with any AI model that supports MCP. It's like the USB-C port of AI applications.

"Can everyone really code with AI?" I hear this question all the time. Usually after someone sees a viral post about an AI-built app and thinks "I could do that too!" But here's what those posts don't tell you: most AI-generated apps are just pretty shells—nice looking websites that lack functionality. Why? Most AI coding assistants build with JavaScript and are optimized for presenting information to the user (frontend development). These apps lack the backends and services that power functional applications. JavaScript is great. It creates beautiful frontends—Replit’s AI tools use it well. ...

Introduction At Replit, we are rethinking the developer experience with AI as a first-class citizen of the development environment. Towards this vision, we are tightly integrating AI tools with our IDE. Currently, LLMs specialized for programming are trained with a mixture of source code and relevant natural languages, such as GitHub issues and StackExchange posts. These models are not trained to interact directly with the development environment and, therefore, have limited ability to understand events or use tools within Replit. We believe that by training models native to Replit, we can cr...

One of our core beliefs at Replit is that multiplayer collaboration makes building software more creative and efficient.
