## Caption

When Michele Catasta joined Repl.it the company was still mainly known by students and beginner coders.

He helped transform it into an AI-first platform focused on making software creation accessible to anyone, not just engineers.

Instead of building another coding assistant, Michele pushed Replit toward autonomous agents that could plan, write, fix, and deploy apps with minimal human input.

That shift helped Replit stand out in the crowded AI coding market as larger tech companies raced to catch up.

The strategy worked fast. Replit’s AI products became the company’s biggest growth engine, driving explosive adoption, major investor attention, and eventually pushing the startup to a reported $9B valuation during the AI boom.
