Tier B · TL;DR
I believe that AI is about to wipe out an entire generation of SaaS companies

Claim

I believe that AI is about to wipe out an entire generation of SaaS companies. With tools like Lovable, UI Bakery, bolt.new, Cursor and Base44, I’ve seen marketers, sales folks, and even product managers create micro-SaaS without writing a single line of code. I’ve been experimenting myself, building a small attribution tool on Lovable.

Mechanism

That changes a lot in the B2B space. Because suddenly, a SaaS that only solves one problem isn’t enough.

Conditions

Holds when: the operating context matches the post's stated frame (team shape, stage, tooling, buyer type).

Fails when: the practice is lifted into a different stage or buyer context without reworking the underlying mechanism.

Evidence

"I believe that AI is about to wipe out an entire generation of SaaS companies."
