Replit announced onstage at TechCrunch Disrupt that it will no longer run Anthropic’s Claude models on its platform. CEO Amjad Masad said the switch was driven by cost, partnership terms and internal benchmark results that favor OpenAI’s models. The move follows a partnership with OpenAI announced in August. Replit’s platform lets developers code and deploy apps in a browser, and the shift could affect users who rely on Claude‑powered features.
