Michele Catasta, Replit | RAISE Summit 2026

In this interview from RAISE Summit 2026 in Paris, Michele Catasta, president and head of AI at Replit, joins theCUBE's John Furrier to discuss how the coding platform is scaling enterprise adoption of AI agents. Catasta details Replit's growth past 60 million registered users and explains how the company avoids duplicating data governance by letting customers build Databricks and Microsoft Fabric apps that inherit existing enterprise rules. He outlines how more than 400 connectors and support for multiple deployment targets let enterprises go from access to exponential adoption in weeks rather than months. The conversation also touches on Replit's global expansion, with the company recently surpassing 300 employees and targeting $1 billion in revenue by year's end. Catasta explains why owning the agent harness matters for non-technical users, shielding them from technical decisions that create blockers, while positioning Replit's agent as a full platform builder rather than a pure coding tool. He shares his excitement about the proliferation of agent-to-agent protocols and previews Replit's next major push: extending its app-building revolution to let every user build their own agents. Reflecting on RAISE Summit, Catasta praises its full-stack scope, from GPU buildouts to the application layer, and highlights Europe's growing role as a flagship venue for global AI innovation.
