Replit CEO: India Is Our Second-Biggest Market
Replit's Amjad Masad reveals India's growing importance as AI coding competition intensifies.
The AI coding wars are getting real. Replit CEO Amjad Masad dropped some interesting intel in a new interview — India has become Replit's second-largest market by active users.
The company is integrating Razorpay's payment technology, a move that signals serious commitment to the Indian market. Razorpay is one of India's biggest payment infrastructure players, and the integration should make monetization smoother for Replit's growing user base there.
Masad also weighed in on AI's broader impact on SaaS. As AI-powered coding tools reshape how software gets built, traditional SaaS models face disruption. Tech giants and AI startups are locked in an escalating race to own the developer workflow.
Replit has positioned itself at the intersection of cloud-based development and AI assistance. With India pulling serious user numbers, the company's international expansion story just got more interesting.
