This article made no sense to me. It is talking about AI-generated code eating SaaS. That's not what is going to replace SaaS. When AI is able to do the job itself — without generating code — that's what is going to replace SaaS.

AI-generated code still requires software engineers to build, test, debug, deploy, secure, monitor, be on-call, handle incidents, and so on. That's very expensive. It is much cheaper to pay a small monthly fee to a SaaS company.

Perhaps OP's argument still applies to dev-oriented SaaS.

Are you as a dev still going to pay for analytics and dashboards that you could have propped up by Claude in 5 minutes instead?

Analytics like what?! Sentry? See, i'm the first one to waste 15+ hours of my own time claude vibing some barely working analytics in order to save 15 dollars for not paying a proven solution to professionals who really understand that problem domain - but we all agree how dumb this is. But if i really can vibe code that analytics in 5 minutes, that thing was never a proven SaaS business in the first place and my use case with certainty a toy app with zero users..
