Replit had partnered with OpenAI in August, but insiders familiar with the Anthropic partnership dispute Masad's claim, saying the deal is still in place. Evidence from Replit's own website, blog posts, and employee social media posts from recent weeks shows Claude models (including Opus 5.5) still running in Replit Agent's production environment. Masad also shared growth figures, noting enterprise revenue grew from 2% to 15% year-over-year and now makes up over half of B2B revenue, plus comments on AI agent safety and sandboxing. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### Is Replit still using Anthropic's Claude models in its AI agent? Evidence suggests yes, despite CEO Amjad Masad publicly stating Replit was no longer working with Anthropic. Replit's own documentation, a late-September blog post citing Claude Fable 5 and 5.1 running in Replit Agent's production environment, and an employee's social media post about Opus 5.5 all indicate continued Anthropic usage as recently as a few weeks before the statement. Insiders familiar with the partnership said it was still in place. _Anyone picking an AI coding platform should track which models actually power it on daily.dev._ ### Why did Replit's CEO say the company dropped Anthropic for OpenAI? Amjad Masad cited cost, partnership terms, and performance as the reasons, stating that ChatGPT performed better and that Replit's internal and public benchmarks showed OpenAI's Sol and Astra models outperforming on building vibe-coded applications from scratch. Replit had announced a partnership with OpenAI in August, after Anthropic's Claude models had previously helped grow Replit's revenue significantly. _Developers comparing model providers for coding agents can follow these performance claims on daily.dev._ ### How much of Replit's revenue now comes from enterprise and B2B customers? Enterprise contracts grew from about 2% of Replit's revenue last year to roughly 15% this year, and more than 50% of total revenue now comes from B2B customers, according to CEO Amjad Masad speaking at TechCrunch Disrupt. Specific ARR figures were not disclosed. _Those tracking AI coding platform growth trends can follow revenue shifts like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Anthropic made a big mistake](https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-made-a-big-mistake-eri1vq5sp) · Hacker News · 3 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#openai](https://daily.dev/tags/openai), [#ai-coding](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-coding), [#anthropic](https://daily.dev/tags/anthropic), [#vibe-coding](https://daily.dev/tags/vibe-coding) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/replit-is-no-longer-working-with-anthropic-ceo-says-fi1dx4hf6) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Replit is no longer working with Anthropic, CEO says","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/replit-is-no-longer-working-with-anthropic-ceo-says-fi1dx4hf6","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/replit-is-no-longer-working-with-anthropic-ceo-says-fi1dx4hf6"},"datePublished":"2026-10-16T21:24:55.876Z","dateModified":"2026-10-17T02:01:19.356Z","description":"Replit CEO Amjad Masad announced onstage at TechCrunch Disrupt that the company is no longer working with Anthropic, citing cost, partnership, and performance...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/a807d164813e8addafdd3b586dd254bd?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/a807d164813e8addafdd3b586dd254bd?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"TechCrunch","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"TechCrunch","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/tc","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/tc"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/replit-is-no-longer-working-with-anthropic-ceo-says-fi1dx4hf6","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"openai,ai-coding,anthropic,vibe-coding","timeRequired":"PT3M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"TechCrunch","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/tc"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Replit is no longer working with Anthropic, CEO says"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/replit-is-no-longer-working-with-anthropic-ceo-says-fi1dx4hf6#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Is Replit still using Anthropic's Claude models in its AI agent?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Evidence suggests yes, despite CEO Amjad Masad publicly stating Replit was no longer working with Anthropic.
