all this talk about vibe coding killing SaaS is pretty funny.
sure, you can build your own CRM in a weekend now. probably a decent one too. but who’s going to maintain it? fix things when they break? add features? what happens when the person who built it leaves?
and there’s a reason mature products take years to build. it’s not because writing code is hard. it’s because figuring out what to build takes experience that no amount of prompting can replace.
i think a lot of companies will happily ditch their SaaS subscriptions, build their own stuff, and then slowly discover why they were paying those subscriptions in the first place.
anyone already tired of maintaining their vibe-coded creations? 🙂
@skavish The maintenance part is the real bill. Building the CRM takes a weekend, keeping it alive through the third data migration is where a SaaS earns its keep. Agents help, but someone still owns it.
