Personally, if I feel like you vibe coded your SaaS I’m probably not gonna pay for it. You can obviously tell when a project is vibe coded just based on the way it looks, the weird bugs you see and the poor documentation.

There’s definitely a market for good looking UI that actually works and stands out from the vibe coded junk. Artisanal corn fed UI I guess.

Same here. This was human driven UI. I used AI sparingly for mostly architecture decisions on the gem. Otherwise all by hand. I'm a product designer by trade.

AI is an effort leverage tool, not a thinking one.

If you know what you're doing it can truly accelerate your work.

I agree.

None of mine are vibe-coded. They're making a competent engineer like myself - more efficient.

The roadblock for me is the coding part, not the idea part.
