Replit CEO says company is ending its Anthropic partnership
Overview
Replit CEO Amjad Masad said at TechCrunch Disrupt that the company is no longer working with Anthropic, citing cost, partnership and performance.
He said ChatGPT now performs better than Anthropic's models at building vibe-coded applications from scratch, according to Replit's public benchmark.
An unnamed insider told TechCrunch that the partnership was still in place. A September Replit blog post listed Claude Fable 5 and Claude Fable 5.1 as running in Replit Agent's production environment. The two accounts conflict, and the report does not say which models Replit Agent currently uses.
