What is this platonic ideal of a vibe code business that doesn't rely on some outside vendor to create value? If all you're offering is something for a niche (CRM just for car repair business), that's getting cloned yesterday. Unless your value is locked behind some moat, like hiring licensed doctors, you won't survive, and even then.

Just pointing out a business that is fundamentally about doctors prescribing and delivering compounded GLP-1 is not something "agents" will whip up for you, nor is it a one-man business.
My one-man business uses AWS and a bank and some vendors. AWS and the bank and my vendors have many people working there. Is it still a one man business?
Come on, you know what I'm talking about - those aren't your main products and customers aren't dealing with them instead of you. If you were paying 1000 people to wrap gifts and deal with customers it's a stretch to call your biz a one man operation. That's just outsourcing.
Yeah, man, I'm sayin' that that is what a vibe code business looks like. It's gotta do something in the real world. No one's making a million dollars off of leftpad as a service so it's a fine example of a successful vibe code business.
