Replit had planned to stay with Anthropic, which had discounted its models before. But Anthropic would not extend that discount without a bigger spending commitment, the report said.<\/p>\n<p>TNW has not independently verified the figures. In September, The Information also reported that Anthropic ends discounts once customers use up their committed tokens.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_customers_moving\"><\/span>Other customers moving<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The OpenAI discounts are pulling other customers too. Rippling chief executive Parker Conrad told The Information that OpenAI models now handle 52% of the HR software company\u2019s coding work, up from 16% in May. Anthropic\u2019s share fell from 57% to 18% over the same period.<\/p>\n<p>DataCamp chief executive Jonathan Cornelissen told The Information that OpenAI\u2019s pricing cut his costs by 80% to 90%. A US bank with more than $7bn in assets had its ChatGPT seats doubled to 500 staff at no extra charge, the report said. It pays under $7 per user, against the usual $20 or more.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Replits_own_account\"><\/span>Replit\u2019s own account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Replit chief executive Amjad Masad had already said at TechCrunch Disrupt that OpenAI\u2019s models perform better on its benchmarks, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2026\/10\/17\/replit-is-no-longer-working-with-anthropic-ceo-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">TechCrunch reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIt was a decision based on both cost, partnership, and performance.\u201d Amjad Masad, Replit<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Masad later told TechCrunch that users can still pick Claude.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cReplit remains model agnostic.
