Replit Agent builds apps from a prompt inside Replit’s browser workspace and can publish them on Replit’s own hosting, databases included.

It’s more of an app builder than a coding assistant for an existing repository. Free Mode handles lighter work at no cost, while Power and Max Mode use monthly credits priced by effort. In August 2026 Replit cut its deployment and storage prices on every plan, though database compute stayed at $0.16 an hour.

Who it’s for

People who want a working app without setting up a development environment: prototypes, internal tools, dashboards and side projects. Replit pitches Core at personal projects and simple apps, Pro at commercial builds, and Enterprise at teams across a company, not just engineers.

What stands out

  • Build and host in one place. The agent writes the app and publishes it on Replit’s hosting with a database and storage; Pro adds database rollback of up to 28 days.
  • Three modes. Free, Power and Max Mode trade capability for cost, and Replit warns you before a request moves into paid usage.
  • Monitoring Agent. Since October 23 it can investigate production problems from your app’s logs and metrics, then attempt and check a fix.
  • Mobile apps. It can build iOS and Android apps and take them through to App Store submission.
  • Budget controls. Usage alerts and hard spending limits in billing settings.

Drawbacks and things to watch

  • Costs can be hard to predict. Effort-based pricing means similar requests can cost different amounts, and Plan Mode can incur paid reasoning even when no code changes.
  • Free apps expire. Starter’s one published app goes offline after 30 days.
  • Training opt-out needs Pro. Core subscribers can’t opt out of model improvement.
  • Not built for your existing repo. If you already have a codebase and an editor, a coding agent like Claude Code, Codex or Copilot fits better.

Privacy and security

Replit holds SOC 2 Type II and complies with GDPR; it says it’s working toward ISO 27001. Enterprise adds SSO, SCIM, audit logs, advanced privacy controls and single-tenant options, and admins can choose which model providers are allowed.

Getting started

Replit runs in the browser with nothing to install; sign up, describe the app you want, and the agent starts building. A desktop app is also available for Mac, Windows and Linux.

Yes, within limits. The free Starter plan includes Free Mode with a daily cap and one published app that goes offline after 30 days. Replit doesn't publish the exact free allowances.

Yes. It can build native iOS and Android apps with Expo, let you test them on your phone, and take them through TestFlight to App Store submission.

Yes, both ways. You can add MCP servers to Replit, and external MCP clients can connect to Replit's own MCP server to create and update Replit apps.
