Replit Pricing Explained: Plans, Costs and What You Get

Replit pricing has changed a lot in 2026. The old Teams plan is gone. The current lineup is Starter, Core, Pro and Enterprise. Core costs $20 a month, or $18 a month billed annually. Pro starts at $100 a month, or $90 a month billed annually. Enterprise is custom. But the subscription price is not your real bill. Replit Agent is billed by effort, so a heavy month can cost more than the plan price. This guide explains every plan, what the credits mean, and how to keep costs under control. Prices are in US dollars, from Replit's pricing page checked in November 2026.

Replit Pricing at a Glance

Yearly billing saves up to 10 percent. Prices are subject to tax depending on your location. The pricing page shows Core, Pro and Enterprise only. Starter is not listed there anymore, though it still exists in Replit's docs.

Starter: Free, for Learning and Small Apps

Starter is the free plan. It includes a daily Agent credit allowance up to a monthly cap, monthly cloud credits, and Lite builds only. You can publish one app, and it goes down after 30 days. Starter suits learning, trying the Agent, and tiny public apps. It does not suit a real product. The daily allowance is small and the published app expires. Move to Core when you want an app that stays up.

Replit Pricing: Core at $20 a Month

Core is the entry paid plan for solo builders. It costs $20 a month, or $18 a month billed annually, which is $216 a year. You get up to 30 hours of chat on Free Mode, up to 60 projects on Free Mode, and $20 toward more powerful models. You also get unlimited workspaces, AI integrations, Plan mode and up to 5 collaborators. Core fits side projects and indie hackers shipping real apps. The $20 model credit is the part to watch. Free Mode work is included. Work on more powerful models draws down the credit. When it runs out, you pay as you go. A complex build can burn the credit fast.

Pro: From $100 a Month for Teams and Heavy Builders

Pro starts at $100 a month, or $90 a month billed annually. It includes everything in Core plus even more Free Mode usage, $100 toward the most powerful models, premium support, up to 15 collaborators, 10 parallel tasks and database rollback up to 28 days. Higher Pro tiers cost $215, $425, $825 or $2,000 a month billed annually, with $250, $500, $1,000 or $2,500 in monthly credits. Unused Pro credits roll over for two months. Pro fits small teams building together and solo builders with heavy Agent use. The old Teams plan was retired in February 2026. Existing Teams customers were moved to Pro. Pro now covers the small-team case, with pooled credits and no per-user fee.

Enterprise: Custom, for Security and Scale

Enterprise is custom priced. It adds SSO, SCIM and audit logs, advanced privacy controls, centralized security management, single-tenant and private networking options, and dedicated premium support. The upgrade wizard offers a fixed annual credit commitment or pay-as-you-go. Enterprise suits companies with strict security needs and large teams. Ask sales for a quote sized to your expected Agent usage, not just your seat count.

How Replit Credits and Effort-Based Pricing Work

This is the part that surprises new users. Replit Agent is billed by effort under a checkpoint model, not a flat rate per build. Each paid plan includes a chunk of Free Mode Agent work plus a dollar credit for more powerful models. Anything past that is priced by effort, and Replit does not convert effort into a dollar figure in advance. That means your bill depends on how hard the Agent works, not just on your plan. Control spending with four habits. First, use Free Mode for drafts and simple edits. Second, save powerful models for the hard steps. Third, check your usage in the billing dashboard weekly. Fourth, set a monthly spending limit if your plan offers one. Replit's docs explain credits and billing in detail. Read them before your first big build.

Which Replit Plan Should You Pick

Pick Starter if you are learning or testing. Pick Core at $20 a month if you are a solo builder shipping a side project. Pick Pro at $100 a month if you build with a small team or use the Agent heavily every day. Pick Enterprise if you need SSO, audit logs and private networking. The most common mistake is buying Pro for the credit and then burning it on one complex build. Start on Core. Watch one month of usage. Upgrade when the credit, not the marketing, runs out.

Bottom Line

Replit pricing is simple on the surface and metered underneath. Starter is free. Core is $20 a month. Pro starts at $100 a month. Enterprise is custom. The real cost is the effort-based Agent billing on top of the plan. Budget for it, use Free Mode where you can, and check replit.com/pricing before you commit, because prices and credit rules change often.
