Cataleo does not name a winner. Both statements come from the vendors themselves.

Full Comparison

Criterion Replit WeWeb
Starting price Free tier; paid from ~$20 / month plus usage Published apps on the free tier are time-limited. Free plan; paid seat and hosting plans are priced separately Pricing is split in two. A seat plan (Free, Essential, Pro, Partner) controls editor access, AI tokens, code export and MCP access; a hosting plan (Free, Launch, Grow, Scale) covers WeWeb-hosted deployments, with limits on bandwidth, storage and app sessions. A seat plan is required before a hosting plan can be added, and self-hosted apps have no session limit.
Free trial Free tier, published apps time-limited Free plan with the visual editor, WeWeb-hosted deployment with a session limit and a monthly AI token allowance
Commercial use Yes Not stated
Output Full-stack apps: code, database, hosting and deploy in one place Vue.js single-page web apps, hosted by WeWeb or exported and self-hosted
Hosting Not stated WeWeb cloud on AWS, or self-hosted after code export
What it generates Full-stack apps through Agent 3, which generates autonomously and tests in a real browser Production web apps such as SaaS products, customer portals, internal tools, directories and MVPs, built visually or generated from a description by the WeWeb AI assistant
Stack and frameworks 50+ languages Vue.js single-page applications, editable visually or extended with coded components
Auth and database Built-in database Supabase, Xano, Airtable, Algolia, SmartSuite and any REST API, with internal databases connected without replication; auth through Supabase Auth, Xano Auth, Auth0, OpenID, custom tokens or WeWeb Auth
Hosting and deploy Yes, built-in hosting and deploy WeWeb cloud hosting on AWS, or self-hosting anywhere after code export, with a documented Cloudflare route
Payments Yes, Agent wires up Stripe in one step, on paid plans Yes, a Stripe plugin among the documented extensions
Access to the code Full browser IDE with terminal and version control, every line visible Yes, full Vue.js code export and self-hosting from the Essential seat plan upwards

The trade-offs

Strengths and Limitations

Replit

Strengths

  • Everything in one place: code, database, hosting, deploy
  • Glass-box, you can inspect every line
  • Autonomous Agent 3

Limitations

  • More technical, and tied to Replit's environment
  • Published apps on the free tier are time-limited
  • Usage-based costs

WeWeb

Strengths

  • Exports the generated Vue.js source, so an app can be self-hosted and is not locked to the platform
  • Connects to Supabase, Xano, Airtable, Algolia, SmartSuite and any REST API, including internal databases without replication
  • Six documented authentication routes, from Supabase Auth and Auth0 to a custom token flow
  • Official MCP server, so outside agents such as Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT can build inside a project

Limitations

  • Seat plan and hosting plan are billed separately, so the cost of a project depends on both
  • Code export and self-hosting require at least the Essential seat plan
  • MCP access needs a Pro or Partner plan once the 14-day trial on a new workspace ends
  • The MCP server does not expose plugin actions, so an agent cannot build with the Xano or Supabase plugins
  • It builds the front end and expects a backend such as Supabase or Xano alongside it

Plans

Pricing
