Replit debuted 'Free Mode,' a new feature powered by OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Luna model. While it requires a paid subscription ($20/month for Core or $100/month for Pro), it aims to inject value by removing the stress of burning through AI tokens for lightweight tasks. Replit president Michele Catasta called the approach 'radical' and confirmed deeper future collaboration with OpenAI.
