Introduction The first Jarvis Pro prototype could produce answers that sounded right. That was the problem. One early answer looked polished: it named the merchant, summarized the week, and recommended pushing promotions before the next review. It was also wrong. The merchant’s order volume was down, but the sharper issue was operational: more outlets were paused and fulfilment had slipped. Sending more demand into that setup would have made the merchant look worse. That failure changed how we judged the system. Fluent was not enough. Jarvis Pro is the AI assistant we built for Grab account…
Introduction What worried us wasn’t the hallucination, it was the subtle plausibility. Answers an engineer could easily read past and accept: a right-looking Structured Query Language (SQL) query, a plausible tool call, an innocent profile update, or a patch that satisfied the surface tests. When we analyzed the row-level failures, a clear pattern emerged: SQL generation: kept the query shape but changed the underlying metric. Tool calling: selected the right tool family but drifted on parameters. Profile updates: cited every event instead of only the evidence that supported the claim. Coding…
Every team has conventions. How you structure a project. How you handle secrets. Your design system, your testing standards, your code style. The problem: AI Agents don’t know your conventions. So you explain it again on every prompt, paste in your standards doc, or just hope someone remembered to add the context. It is one of those small frictions that compounds quietly until you are spending more time re-teaching the Agent than actually building. Today we're launching Agent Customization: a way to give Replit Agent the context it needs to work the way you or your team actually works, across…
Replit already scans your projects for vulnerable dependencies, and audits your dependencies before you publish. But risk shows up earlier than that, while you are developing, the moment a malicious package gets installed. Today we're launching Package Firewall, in partnership with Socket (a software supply-chain security company) . Package Firewall blocks malicious and compromised packages from ever being installed into your app, even while you are building. This network-level security protection eliminates any window for malware to be installed into your project. It's on by default for…
Starting today, anyone can design and launch a custom Shopify storefront by chatting with the Replit Agent. Describe the store you want, and Agent generates a custom front end, creates a new Shopify store, and adds your products from the same conversation. When you're ready to sell, claim the store in Shopify, activate payments, and use Replit to deploy your storefront to a domain. From the first prompt to taking real orders is roughly ten minutes. Why we built this Replit builders already ship real software, from internal tools, to side projects, to full businesses. But selling physical…
You shipped your app. Now what? Publishing is only the beginning. Your app may look great, but if no one can find it, it stays invisible. Getting discovered on Google or recommended by AI chatbots used to mean learning SEO and GEO from scratch- writing meta tags, guessing what crawlers want, and hoping it works. Most builders skip it entirely. But done well, SEO turns a published app into one people can actually find. What's new Today, we are introducing Replit SEO Agent, which helps your apps get discovered on web search and AI search . It runs a full scan of your app, points out what's…
We believe enterprise software should move at the speed of ideas. Today, we’re collaborating with Microsoft to make it dramatically easier for enterprises to build AI-powered apps in Replit and deploy them directly into Microsoft Fabric with enterprise-grade governance and security built in. The integration helps teams go from prompt to production faster- turning governed enterprise data into internal tools, dashboards, workflows, and AI applications in a fraction of the time traditional development requires. Bringing AI-Native Development to the Microsoft Data Ecosystem Microsoft Fabric is a…
Starting today, any organization can purchase Replit Enterprise directly on our website, configure SSO and SCIM, invite their team, and start building production apps, in minutes. No demo requests, no contract negotiations, no waiting. Get Started now. Why we built this Teams evaluating Replit Enterprise kept telling us the same thing: “We have budget. We’re ready. We just want to get started quickly.” Self-serve Enterprise removes the friction between deciding to buy and actually building, with setup—from signup to a fully provisioned SSO-enabled Enterprise account—taking less time than most…
Replit is the most secure place to vibe code. Today, we're making it dramatically easier to use the Security Center to understand your security posture across all Replit projects in your business. We’re also making it possible to remediate urgent security holes, such as active critical vulnerabilities on multiple published projects, in seconds. You can reach the Security Center from the Replit Homepage, or your Settings. When you land there, the first thing we want to answer is simple: which of my projects are actually at risk right now? Start with what's urgent At the top of Security Center,…
At Replit, we want all users to be able to build secure applications. In addition to features like Security Agent and Auto Protect, you can restrict access to your apps with Private Publishing. Private Publishing is ideal for apps that should only be accessible to a specific set of users — whether that’s a personal tool, an internal app for teammates, or an early prototype shared with close collaborators. Today, we’re introducing two updates that expand secure access for Replit builders: Private Publishing is now available to Core and Starter plan users. Previously, private deployments were…

Illustration by Giacomo BagnaraBy Nikki Larson, Erica Vendetti and Michael BeachOur mission is simple: We seek the truth and help people understand the world. Accomplishing that mission requires each of us to build trust, seek out different perspectives, collaborate respectfully, and continuously strive to deliver the very best in all we do. But what exactly does that mean for Product Managers (PMs)? How do we earn and maintain trust with tens of millions of global readers in an era of misinformation? Where are new readers finding and developing a daily habit with our original reporting? How…
How five product design interns created an award-winning virtual museum experience for employeesIllustration by Lucas BurtinBy Nuoran Chen, Mina Chung, Frannie Ello, Christina Su, and Bella RinneA key element of The New York Times Product Design Internship Program is a cohort project where all the interns work as a group to create a deliverable that is presented to the entire product design team.

Update: Ghostwriter is out now! In 2018 when we announced Multiplayer Mode, we said it's the most significant evolution of Replit to date. For the first time, you could share a URL with a friend, student, or coworker and get a shared text editor and runtime — no setup required. Replit Multiplayer is changing how an entire generation of programmers learn how to code and make software. Today, we're announcing Ghostwriter, which infuses state-of-the-art intelligence into nearly all IDE features. Ghostwriter sports an ML-powered pair programmer that completes your code in realtime, tools to…
Among the many things that makes Repl.it special is our ability to provide free compute to millions of users. We've built a platform that not only lets you write and run code, but also gives you access to a Linux container through which you can execute arbitrarily complex commands. Despite being such a powerful feature, we haven't done a great job of exposing that capability to its fullest. Today, we're excited to announce that we're rolling out a redesign of the shell as a separate tab next to the console. Although we've already had a shell, this new redesign helps make it a more integral…

We all love reading about the latest software developments trends and buzzwords but they can often turn out to be just that, buzzwords. For us at Small Improvements, Domain Driven Design (DDD) has really lived up to it’s own hype though and helped us build better software, faster and fewer bugs to boot. Do we have […]
