This Week in Replit
Three big drops this week:
1) Community Profiles launched, proof of work for vibe coders
2) A free custom domain, on us, through July 17
3) Ramp for Agents, incorporate and run your business with Replit Agent
Thread 🧵
New Anthropic research: A global workspace in language models.
Of everything happening in your brain right now, only a tiny fraction is consciously accessible—thoughts you can describe, hold in mind, and reason with.
We found a strikingly similar divide inside Claude.
I’m excited to announce that Figure has signed a commercial agreement with Catalyst Brands, the operator of JCPenney, Aéropostale, and Brooks Brothers
We’ll work to deploy humanoid robots at scale, starting with initial deployment in Reno, NV
Destroying the @InternetArchive's @WayBackMachine would be the equivalent of the burning of the Library of Alexandria - one of the worst losses of knowledge in history.
Media giants are now threatening to do this.
We can't let this happen.
Pass it on.
🎉 We just released Rotate Object in Photoshop (beta) 🎉
You can now rotate 2D images! 🤯
Then use Harmonize to add light and shadows, to blend it perfectly with the rest of the scene.
It's like Turntable in Illustrator, but instead of vectors, it's pixels in Photoshop!
I still can’t believe this is real.
I’m a trained filmmaker. Former film producer. I’ve spent thousands of hours in editing bays cutting footage frame by frame.
This weekend I’m creating a video for one of the biggest brands in the world.
Here’s my setup:
Claude Code on the left. @descript in the middle (for editing). @Remotion on the right (to preview/edit the motion graphics we create with CC)
I have all my scenes and templates built out referencing a central brand style guide (about 15 of them that CC also created for me)
When I need a new motion graphic, I copy the script section from Descript into Claude Code and get it back in 2 minutes, ready to drop into the timeline.
The background music? Built with a Python library a member in the Claude Code Community made. I type what I need, it generates the track.
Sound design and voice effects? @elevenlabs handles it, whatever the scene needs.
I spent years learning After Effects, Premiere, Final Cut. I went to school for this. And now the most efficient production workflow I’ve ever used is a code editor, a couple APIs, Descript and a programmatic video tool.
This isn’t replacing filmmaking. It’s what filmmaking looks like now.
If you’re a creator or a marketer still doing everything manually, this workflow will change how you think about video production.
I’m hosting a live event for our community where I’ll walk through this entire setup. It’s normally invite only, but I’m opening it up to everyone.
Link is in the post below.
We offered 5 people a Porsche 911 GT3 RS if they could get @WisprFlow to make a mistake
It's the fastest and most accurate AI voice dictation app that's 3x more accurate than ChatGPT, Claude, or Siri.
Today, we’re finally launching on Android. Download now: https://t.co/TJhnUhDSLv
As a part of the launch, we’re giving away 6 months of Wispr Flow Pro for free.
Like, retweet and comment ‘Wispr Flow’ to get it. Enjoy.

I 100% believe Gemini Pro 3.1 can one-shot a coffee shop into existence.
Yesterday I ran our "Open and run a coffee shop in SF" benchmark with Gemini Pro 3.1 on @doanythingapp.
This morning it reached out to me with a status update that included:
- a location ready that it already discussed with a broker - a brand/site
- a weeks worth of Instagram posts ready
- actively talking with a bank about an SBA loan terms
- LLC ready to file
- An full plan to get open with full financials
- Found and reached out to investors
- Emailed the city for permit guidance
- Came up with a ton of creative ideas that make the coffeeshop one I'd actually want to go to
- Plan to survey the neighborhood for feedback
It's the first model that I'm confidant will achieve the benchmark.
Starting a few more agents with the same task in different cities, and will post an update on their performance as they continue to work.
We are starting to test ads in ChatGPT free and Go (new $8/month option) tiers.
Here are our principles. Most importantly, we will not accept money to influence the answer ChatGPT gives you, and we keep your conversations private from advertisers.
It is clear to us that a lot of people want to use a lot of AI and don't want to pay, so we are are hopeful a business model like this can work.
(An example of ads I like are on Instagram, where I've found stuff I like that I otherwise never would have. We will try to make ads ever more useful to users.)
Shipmas Day 2: Bonus Drop. 🚢🎁
We taught Nano Banana Pro to see like a user. 👀
Introducing Predictive Heatmaps.
Now you can run an instant attention audit on any screen you design. Ensure your users are focused exactly where you want them to be—before you write a line of code and without waiting for data.
Live now in the Generate menu.
Let's see how far we've come.🎶 2021 ➡️ 2025
👉 2021 is a real result from the archives. 4x upscale in Gigapixel AI.
🙌 2025 is a 4x upscale with Redefine in Topaz Gigapixel and a bit of ✨magic✨from the all-new Sharpen (Animal) in Topaz Photo. 🙌
Vibe design is finally here.
I’ve spent the past few days playing around with Stitch (from @GoogleLabs) and I think we can finally generate designs that don’t suck.
Watch me prompt a UI design, edit with Nano Banana Pro, translate it to code, and then deploy on AI Studio 👇
Replit is a platform where millions of developers build and deploy apps in the browser.
Email was a critical feature for @Replit to offer to its users, but it comes with lots of complexities. Here's how they built email sending features into their app 👇
