Use case overview

A software engineer had Replit Agent build a searchable map of Wefunder brick-and-mortar companies in about 3 hours for about $22.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    Makena Kong gave Replit Agent one prompt asking for a map of funded brick-and-mortar Wefunder companies. The agent installed packages, built the interface with Leaflet, and published the site. When its API attempts returned the wrong companies, Kong parsed the Explore page data herself and hardcoded it. She then made small UI changes through prompts.

  2. How it went

    It took about 3 hours and roughly $22, against an estimated 4–5 hours by hand. Search still needed work when credits ran low, and the agent's API debugging and reloads ate most of the cost.

  3. Worth knowing

    Tell the agent about your private API endpoint up front. Small UI prompts cost $0.30–$2.00 each and were faster and free to do by hand.

Example prompts

Try with Replit Agent
Build a searchable map web app of [type of places, e.g. local breweries or funded small businesses] using data from [source website or CSV]. Each pin should show the name, a short description and a link, and there should be a search box that filters the map by name and [another field, e.g. city]. You're done when the app runs with at least [number] real entries and you've given me the preview link. Tell me the estimated cost before you start any large data import.
