Replit opens private deployments to Starter and Core plans
What happened
Between the May 4, 2026 and May 11, 2026 captures of Replit's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Private deployments democratized from Pro to Starter and Core plans, with feature enhanced to include password-protection. Pro no longer lists it explicitly (inherits via Core). Pulse files it as a product change (feature change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 19, 2026) lists Replit Core at $18 and Replit Pro at $90.
It lands 36 days after Replit's previous change, "Replit Restructures Annual Pricing, Cuts Pro Plan to $90/mo" (Apr 7, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Replit Kills Teams Plan, Launches $100/Month Pro Tier" (Apr 3, 2026). Replit has been tracked since 2024-11-17.
In the same window GitHub and Gitpod also changed their Software Development & Testing pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
