The economics of software creation have inverted. LLMs can handle the technical build that previously required expensive developers, collapsing the time and capital to launch a viable product from months to weeks. This democratizes SaaS founding but floods the market with feature-thin competitors, forcing differentiation upstream into distribution, positioning, and customer intimacy rather than technical novelty. The constraint shifts from "can I build this?" to "can I sell this?" Winners will be operators with existing audiences or domain expertise, not just talented coders.
