There is no future for Replit considering how Anthropic, OpenAI and Google are moving into dev tools. And then there‘s Cursor and the likes.
As an online IDE they would have had a chance. But when they pivoted into AI, they decided to enter a highly crowded place with very strong players.
Recently OpenAI and now Anthropic are developing mobile clients as well:

They were failing as an online IDE for several years then growth shot up after the AI pivot.
Cursor is in the same lifeboat being circled by sharks as Replit. What value does teaching noobs how to code or showing changes in an IDE have when the AI is smarter than humans and human in the loop just slows things down and makes them worse?
