Replit is no longer working with Anthropic, CEO says

Masad said the decision was made for a number of different reasons, including cost. Replit announced a partnership with OpenAI in August, but there was never any indication that it was no longer with Anthropic.

Get smart on it

Replit, an AI coding platform, has ended its partnership with Anthropic and switched to using OpenAI's technology instead, according to the company's CEO. The decision was based on multiple factors including cost, partnership fit, and performance metrics, with the CEO stating that ChatGPT performs better on certain benchmarks. This matters because Replit's previous partnership with Anthropic had helped the company grow its revenue significantly by using Claude models to power its platform. The announcement drew some contradiction from insiders who claimed the partnership was still active, and evidence suggested Replit was using Anthropic's Claude models as recently as September.
