Replit launches ViBench 2.0 for long-horizon AI software development

Replit has launched ViBench 2.0, a new benchmark designed to evaluate AI models on long-horizon software development tasks. Unlike previous benchmarks that focus on specific coding problems, ViBench 2.0 requires AI agents to build entire products from scratch, adding features incrementally over time. The benchmark includes seventeen distinct products and 241 feature requests, with top-performing models like GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Astra, and Opus 5.5 achieving success rates between 49-65% on the test plans.
