Ask HN: What SaaS can survive with the rise of vibe coding?

[Jsttan]

Hello everyone! With the rise of vibe coding, I am now seeing more and more non-technical people utilising AI to build websites, SaaS and much more, despite the quality is being super bad at first glance.

However, with the huge load of AI-created websites, this make me questioned on how B2C SaaS can survive, as many people are now using AI to build a product instead of using things built by others, or your reach would be harder then ever before since if you succeed, 10 replicate will be created within a week.

Which is why, I want to hear the thought from everyone here, what do you guys think of the future of SaaS (in B2C)?

Ironically, I think vibe coding actually increases the value of curation and trust. More AI-generated apps and content = more noise. The bottleneck shifts from "can I build this?" to "what's actually worth my attention?" SaaS that survives will likely be the ones that:

Help users filter signal from noise Build trust through human judgment or curated sources Solve problems that require ongoing, reliable data — not just one-off generation

I'm building in this space myself (an AI-powered news digest tool), and the core bet is exactly this: people don't want more content, they want less but better. The vibe-coded clones might replicate features, but they can't replicate trust or a curated network of sources.

The one that has high security barrier to enter. Payment is probably safe.

All workflow orchestration related are totally f*cked
