Google and Replit strengthen their collaboration on vibe coding
Google and Replit recently announced a multi-year extension of their collaboration with the vibe-coding firm Replit. The goal of the deal is to make the tooling available to major corporate partners using Google infrastructure.

The specifics:

For multimodal efforts, Replit will incorporate Google's recently released Gemini 3 and its Imagen 4 text-to-image model.

In an effort to enable Fortune 1000 teams to develop apps without specialized engineers, the companies will collaborate on marketing through Google Cloud Marketplace.

In less than a year, Replit's annualized sales increased from less than $3 million to $150 million, and the business was valued at $3 billion in a September investment round.

The deal comes as competitors gather momentum, with Cursor reaching the same milestone at a $29 billion valuation and Claude Code surpassing $1 billion in run-rate revenue.

Up until now, vibe coding has mostly been used by lone developers, but Google's agreement represents a wager that the procedures can be scaled for businesses as well. It's also another illustration of the growing code competition across frontier labs, where Google is vying for a larger portion of the developer workflow with Claude Code, OpenAI's Codex, and others.
