Saudi Innovators Leverage Replit AI for Limitless Opportunities
My visit to Saudi has been nothing short of amazing. Have met and heard stories about entrepreneurs from all walks of life using Replit in so many ways: A teenager who built a college prep app that became a funded startup, an Uber driver who uses Replit on his phone to build his dream app, and a founder who built “uber for horses,” where you can order horses to your favorite location or party. I’ve also met executives, government agencies, and business owners using Replit and AI broadly to reinvent how they work. I’m extremely excited about Saudi becoming a shining example for the world on how AI can be a force of good, opportunity, and jobs that is accessible to anyone. And how Arabs can innovate and be on the cutting edge of what’s possible. Which brings me to this partnership with HUMAIN, led by the indefatigable Tareq Amin ! We couldn’t even wish for a better partner—the entire team is super talented, motivated, and ambitious. We will be talking more about our plans in the coming months.
