About Replit
Replit is a cloud-based development platform where Replit Agent can build, run, and deploy full applications from natural-language prompts, alongside a browser-based multiplayer IDE with built-in hosting and a database. Builders, including non-professional developers, who want to describe an app in plain language and have it built, hosted, and iterated on entirely in the browser, without setting up local tooling.
- Replit Agent, an AI app builder that writes, evolves, and deploys code from natural-language prompts across websites, mobile apps, data visualizations, and more
- Intelligent model routing that selects an AI model per task
- Built-in hosting, authentication, and database services for shipping apps without separate infrastructure setup
- Multiplayer collaboration for multiple people to work in the same codebase in parallel, with visibility into changes before they merge
- Infinite Canvas for visually exploring and tweaking app designs and applying them directly to the app
- 100+ built-in integrations, including OpenAI, Stripe, and Google Workspace
- Native iOS and Android mobile apps for chatting with Agent and editing projects on the go
- Database rollback, up to 28 days on the Pro plan, for recovering from mistakes

How to choose
Before switching to Replit, weigh it against its listed alternatives: Cursor (Professional developers who want AI-assisted coding inside a familiar, local desktop editor rather than a browser-based platform); GitHub Copilot (Developers who want AI code completion inside their existing local IDE rather than moving their whole workflow to the browser). Compare each against the workflow you actually run today — integrations, customization, and the effort required to migrate your existing data usually matter more than headline features. Confirm it runs on the platforms you need (Web, iOS, Android) before switching.
If Replit's feature set above doesn't cover what you need, one of the alternatives compared here — Cursor, GitHub Copilot — may be a closer fit.
