Don’t for get, a business value proposition is more than the software product. I don’t think companies will want to internalize the product management, roadmap prioritization, support, maintenance and operations of managing dozens and dozens of custom apps. It won’t be their core competency.
I do think companies could invest in custom apps that are very, very particular to their domain / industry.
Perhaps more interesting would be for traditional cloud software vendors to offer higher degrees of customization through dynamic AI-defined modules. As the software provider your cost to manage a more customized solution could go down dramatically.
I saw this and immediately subscribed. I fully agree and have been asking this questions repeatedly. I’ve seen some colleagues beginning to build their own software with AI tools. It’s still too hard to do for most people. I see it going a couple of different ways. A new job could be automation manager. That person knows all the tools but isn’t particularly a coder. They are more a business analyst with tool familiarity. In an extreme version of the future, you just ask for the results of software or maybe it’s not even that. The AI is telling you what you should ask for and then giving you the results. Why do I need a CRM when I can ask for my top sales leads and get suggestions on the key steps to advance them and auto assign those steps, etc.?
Insightful article.
