Ok can you build an app on @replit or similar for $XX a month?

Not really

I first built a terrible Cluely clone.  It was a fun POC but barely worked.

It only cost $XXXX to build

Now I'm building for real and maybe XX% of the way to GA (if I get there) for $252.83, spent in X days 

Nothing compared to a human dev but also not $XX a month
