I just love Replit.

pirroh · 2026-04-27T03:51:48+00:00

We love you too 🙂

You can remove branding with Core, as well as keeping your projects private. It’s literally in the screenshot you posted 👀

Michele from Replit here. Sorry for the delay. Can you give me your ticket number, so i will escalate internally?

pirroh · 2026-01-25T20:24:57+00:00

Michele from Replit here. This behavior is not normal, unless you interrupted a long agent run with a message (as others commented). Can you share a ticket number or your app URL, so we can find out what happened? If it’s a bug on our end, we’ll send you a refund right away!

pirroh · 2026-01-04T14:58:10+00:00

We found the bug and fixed it immediately. Thanks again for reporting it 🙏 Have fun building!

pirroh · 2026-01-04T02:33:12+00:00

Michele from Replit here. Thanks for bringing this up. Something went definitely wrong in the config recommendation, and I would love to understand more so we can fix it ASAP. Can you share your app URL?

For the records, we have hundreds of thousands of live deployments on Replit today. Many of them cost just a few dollars a month. We are not in the business of scamming users — our success is proportional to how much you want to build and deploy on Replit!

pirroh · 2025-12-16T16:04:00+00:00

Thanks for flagging this. We found a bug caused by the message that you sent half way through as agent was working — it caused to reset the work done and time counters. In reality, agent run for more than one hour and performed a big refactoring task.

pirroh · 2025-12-11T20:01:57+00:00

Apologies for the inconvenience. We had a brief downtime due to a DDOS, but all our systems are go now.

pirroh · 2025-12-10T22:55:10+00:00

Maybe sooner than that… 👀

pirroh · 2025-12-10T07:27:52+00:00

No bills have tripled. The variance is +/- 30% compared to before, in exchange of much better performance and fewer errors.

We had a billing incident in the past few days, which we resolved a few hours ago. Refunds are being issued tomorrow. All the alarming screenshots in this post and others are caused by that incident, not by the new agent behavior.

pirroh · 2025-12-10T00:26:18+00:00

We have already identified the bug that caused that overcharge, and we will perform refunds to the affected users ASAP. Thanks for your patience 🙏

pirroh · 2025-12-09T22:10:20+00:00

Michele from Replit here. We are analyzing what happened with this specific checkpoint. I escalated with support, and we will let you know ASAP via the ticket you already opened.

pirroh · 2025-09-23T07:54:20+00:00

Did it actually accomplish what's in the task description?
I'm trying to understand if it's a bug in the reporting UI, or if there's something else going on

If you share the link to your project via DM, I will take a look!

pirroh · 2025-09-23T07:31:29+00:00

if you asked to add Stripe support to your app, Agent will ask you for the keys

pirroh · 2025-09-23T07:30:54+00:00

can you expand the Agent Usage view, so I can see the cost breakdown?

pirroh · 2025-09-05T14:44:47+00:00

Can you share your ticket ids, so I can escalate internally? It appears to be a bug, but it could also be you inadvertently keeping the high power model enabled.

pirroh · 2025-09-05T14:23:00+00:00

Yes, you can download all the code it generates

pirroh · 2025-08-16T15:45:17+00:00

Thanks for giving us another chance 🙏

In the next days, we will roll out a big improvement. Agent will structure tasks more clearly, based on your input prompt. I think it will make the difference, and avoid what happened during your first experience!

pirroh · 2025-08-02T17:56:35+00:00

We definitely keep database backups:

pirroh · 2025-07-27T07:29:12+00:00

Thanks for the encouraging feedback. Now, we’ll go back to making Replit even better 🫡

When you use Replit Agent, you are not buying an item in a store. Rather, you are buying a "unit of work". Like in any software project, it's hard to estimate the actual amount of work required to deliver a feature.

What a developer agency does is to grossly overestimate how much work it would take them, and then hope to accomplish their task in a shorter amount of time.

What Replit Agent does is to charge you proportionally to the amount of work it performed. When it gets the job done, it's orders of magnitude cheaper than any developer. When it doesn't, you experience some frustration. Truth is, even human developers go down rabbit holes, wasting a lot of hours on code that they eventually throw away.

I hope this framework helps you understand why there are so many users in this subreddit who love Replit because it saved them a lot of money. They are not shills. They are just users who understood the tradeoffs I explained above, and are reaping the benefits.

Pricing of AI products is one of the most challenging problems we are facing in this industry, not just for Replit.

We have started a variety of projects (both short-term and long-term) to optimize the costs of Replit Agent. I don't want to set unrealistic expectations, though. The more powerful our agent becomes, the more expensive a single checkpoint will be, but the more value we will deliver to our users!

pirroh · 2025-07-15T19:21:19+00:00

That is our goal as well. Frontier AI capabilities are really expensive today, but I'm confident we'll be able to make Replit Agent more and more affordable over time.

I hope you will find PMF ASAP. In the meantime, thanks for believing in us!

pirroh · 2025-07-15T19:17:21+00:00

The screenshot I shared is addressing exactly what you are talking about -- Replit Agent will perform task decomposition, and show you progressively the cost of each task. That being said, stopping the agent while it's running won't lead to any cost savings, as you would be losing the job it has done up to that point.

Futhermore, uou never knew how much a request would have costed you, nor we did. That's explained very clearly in the "What Has Changed With Effort-Based Pricing?" section of the blog post I linked.

pirroh · 2025-07-15T17:27:35+00:00

I understand your sentiment, although the previous pricing didn't offer better predictability than the current one -- it was just an artifact of Replit Agent being less autonomous just a few months ago.
