OpenAI has won most of Replit’s AI spending from Anthropic with discounts, The Information reports. The reported contract is worth over $100 million a year, following an OpenAI discount of more than 30%.
Replit had intended to stay with Anthropic, according to The Information’s reporting, cited by The Next Web, but Anthropic would not extend an earlier discount without a larger spending commitment. The Next Web has not independently verified the figures. Replit chief executive Amjad Masad said cost, partnership and performance informed the decision.
Separately, OpenAI halved GPT-6 prices with its Sol and Luna models on 22 September. Rippling chief executive Parker Conrad also told The Information that OpenAI’s share of the company’s coding work rose from 16% in May to 52%, while Anthropic’s fell from 57% to 18%.
For companies building with AI, these reported shifts make negotiated contract terms worth comparing alongside published model prices. Replit says users can still choose Anthropic’s Claude or other supported models, so moving its main spending does not mean removing those options.
The reported annual contract of over $100 million and migration of most of Replit’s AI spending make this a substantial supplier shift.
Keeping several models available can preserve customer choice while a company changes its main supplier.
Builders should treat the reported discount as a negotiating signal, not a verified rate available to every customer.
