Summary
Replit, the collaborative coding platform, announced a $400 million Series D funding round led by Georgian Partners, bringing its valuation to $9 billion. This follows a $250 million round in September that valued the company at $3 billion. Investors in this round include G Squared, Prysm Capital, Coatue, Andreessen Horowitz, and several others, as well as angel investors Shaquille O’Neal and Jared Leto.
