Big week at Replit. Here's a list of things that got shipped.

Free Mode
A new way to use Agent that lets you create more with just your monthly subscription, available on Core and Pro. In Free Mode, everyday tasks no longer use credits, whether you're chatting, ideating, or building. Core subscribers can create up to 30X more than before, plus up to 30 hours of chat a month, and your allowance resets every 5 hours. Powered by OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Luna.

Conversations
Start any new idea by chatting with Replit. Most app ideas start somewhere else, in another AI assistant, doing research and exploring concepts. Then you paste it into Replit and lose all that context. Not anymore. Research, ideate, plan, then build from that same conversation.

Agent modes renamed
Economy is now Power. Power is now Max. Same cost on both. Build in Free Mode and Replit will suggest leveling up when a task calls for it.

Routines (beta) and Memories
Schedule a task from a conversation and get the result back in the same thread. And Replit now remembers how you like to work.

Memories: docs.replit.com/chat/memories

Black box pen testing
Replit already scans your packages and your codebase. Now it scans your app the way an external attacker would see it. Run a Level 3 scan from your Security Center.
