Keep in mind that a lot of vibe-coded software is flying under the radar because it’s being built to replace SaaS and bring workflows in-house. We often judge success by public launches or ARR, but the real "killer app" for this methodology right now is internal tooling for small teams. For example, instead of spending developer bandwidth integrating Salesforce into first-party data, teams are increasingly just vibe-coding a bespoke CRM or CMS as an appendage to their existing database. It’s complex software (state, auth, heavy logic), but it will never be on Product Hunt because it's purely for internal utility. The success metric here isn't "did we get 10k users," it's "did we avoid a $50k contract and weeks of integration hell."

I agree with your assessment, as a full stack dev with CS degree that just kinda waltzed into Salesforce for the last 5 years. Claude is more capable at delivering the customizability that Salesforce tried to offer with it's "clicks not code" approach. the only thing these CRMs have going for them is enterprise entrenchment.

I also work at Stripe and will be recommending that we migrate our CPQ off of Salesforce for various reasons (agent force is butt, platform limits are silly in 2025 - 6 meg max heap size for a backend transaction?????).

Yes this is like anyone sucessfully used their microwave over has anyone started a 1000 location fast food chain. At scale there are more microwaves than maccas.

True. I’m vibe coding and I realize I can combine a bunch of saas into 1 mega app.
