The verdict
Cut this cycle: Replit Agent shines when it starts from nothing, but most buyers on our list are maintaining existing code, where it lost the most ground — below the shortlist bar for now.
Who this is wrong for
- Your work is maintaining and refactoring an existing codebase, not starting new ones.
