Replit, an agentic software creation platform, uses Claude on Google Cloud's Agent Platform to help anyone build and deploy software applications without coding experience. Its AI agent, powered by Claude, has grown that audience to more than 50 million people.
With Claude, Replit:
- Reached 50 million+ users building applications without coding skills
- Built Agent 4, an AI agent focused on design, creative flow, and reducing context switching
- Grew annual recurring revenue from $1M to $240M as the AI-native platform scaled
- Powered visual testing that runs 3x faster and 10x more cost-effectively than computer-use approaches
- Launched new agent versions the same day as new Anthropic model releases
- Created a meta-agent that builds other AI agents and automations from natural-language descriptions

The complexity beyond the code
AI made writing code faster for developers. The rest of software development stayed roughly where it was. Setting up environments, configuring deployments, debugging across files, managing infrastructure: for someone with no engineering background, every one of those steps still sat behind a wall. The gap between "I have an idea" and "I have a working application" stayed wide.
The pattern Replit's leadership kept seeing was that people with business ideas didn't see themselves as software developers, and didn't try to learn. "I'm approached by people who didn't even feel the permission to create software in their life," said Michele Catasta, President and Head of AI at Replit. "They always had an amazing business idea. Now they're doing that 0 to 1, complete in Replit. This is changing people's lives."
Closing the gap meant building an AI agent that could own an entire development cycle: designing schemas, writing frontend and backend code, testing the result, and fixing its own bugs while a non-technical user described what they wanted in plain English. That required a model with the reasoning depth to hold a complex project in working memory for hours at a time.

결과
Software creation at the scale of 50 million users
Replit's natural-language platform now serves more than 40 million users, a population the previous generation of coding tools never reached. Annual recurring revenue has grown from $240M as the AI-native platform has scaled. "We remove all the complexity that makes the job of a software engineer really hard," Catasta said. "That barrier has been completely crushed by Replit."
The user base reaches well beyond traditional developer profiles. Marketing teams build custom analytics dashboards. Sales operations teams create CRM integrations. Some users go further and use Agent 4 to build other agents, describing a workflow in plain English and watching it produce a Slack bot that queries GitHub or a daily digest pulling tasks from Linear.
Teams from Zillow to Duolingo deploy Agent 4 to ship internal tools. "What previously required weeks of developer time now happens in a single afternoon," said Amjad Masad, CEO and co-founder of Replit. "AllFly rebuilt their entire application in days."
The reach is global. One developer in India built their first applications entirely from a phone using Agent 4, earned enough to buy a laptop, and now builds enterprise systems on the platform. Another power user generated more than 36,000 lines of production-ready code in a single Agent 4 session, building a business operating system that integrated eight admin systems with eight client portal systems over roughly 400 minutes of autonomous runtime.
For many of these users, opening Replit is the first time they've built software. "They see the magic for the first time," Catasta said. "They don't even feel that they're writing code anymore. They're just creating an idea they have in their mind and turning it into an application, or a website."
For Catasta, the work is personal. "When I was 16, I was focusing on becoming a good open-source developer," he said. "I love the fact that I'm still working on something I was passionate about as a teenager, and I think this is going to be my life's mission."
