- Subject: Replit Agent
- Pricing: Simpler requests may cost as little as $0.06 and more involved requests will usually cost more than $0.25, sometimes resulting in charges of multiple dollars depending on the size of the work.

Replit enabled Effort-Based Pricing for new users on June 18, 2025, and rolled it out to existing users on July 2. The pricing changes checkpoint costs from a flat $0.25 to a variable amount based on compute resources consumed, with simpler requests costing as low as $0.06 and more complex ones costing more. Replit also offered $10 in credits to affected users and refunded overcharges from a July 11 incident.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://replit.com/blog/effort-based-pricing-recap:

> On average, that checkpoint will represent more work performed by Agent. The cost per checkpoint is now determined based on the amount of computing resources consumed.
