Podcast: The Code AI Podcast
In this episode, we sit down with Jon Cheney, a world-class pianist turned serial entrepreneur who used Replit to build a six-figure AI-powered business in just one weekend without any prior coding experience.
Jon walks us through how a $105,000 developer quote led him to discover Replit, how he launched his first product in just 48 hours, and how Replit Agent became his secret weapon. We explore how AI tools are democratizing software development, empowering non-coders, and reshaping the startup landscape.
We also chat about:
- How Jon built GenAIPI with Replit (LMS, AI assessments, payments, and more)
- Why he believes we’re entering a golden age of solo builders
- What creativity and non-tech skills matter most in the AI era
- His best advice for anyone starting from scratch
🚀 What You’ll Learn:
- How non-coders can build revenue-generating products with Replit
- The mindset shift needed to start building with AI
- What AI tools can’t replace and why that’s your advantage
📍End Result: You’ll leave this episode with a new belief: you don’t need to code to build something powerful.
