Replit Agent can buy supplies and run Google Ads for your business

Replit gave Agent two new jobs. It can buy supplies for your business, paid through Link and Visa, and it can set up and run Google Ads campaigns. You approve the spend in both.

For purchases, which Replit calls Agentic Commerce, you ask in plain language. Replit's example is "find 50 shipping boxes that fit this product, under $75 including delivery." Agent uses what it knows about your business to find options, and a browser subagent goes to the merchant's site, picks the product options, fills the cart and prepares the checkout. If the store needs a sign-in, you take over and hand it back. Agent then stops and waits for you to approve the final total before anything is charged.

Payment goes through Link, Stripe's wallet, where you choose a saved payment method and approve the total. Replit says Link handles the transaction scoped to that approved purchase, with Visa providing the payment infrastructure, and that Agent never gets open-ended permission to spend. Agentic Commerce is for Core and Pro users, starting in the US, and is limited to one-time purchases.

For ads, you connect a Google Ads account or have Agent help you create one, then describe who you want to reach and what you'll spend, such as $40 a day for 30 days. Replit reads your site or app, drafts ad copy, generates images and recommends a daily budget. You set the goal, targeting, budget and landing page, review everything, and launch across Search, YouTube, Display, Discover and more. Agent can also add conversion tracking to the app, so you can measure sign-ups and sales as well as clicks, and you can ask it for performance stats later.

Ads with Google are available to Pro users worldwide.
