Aidan Shaw built his own contract generator, finance dashboard and AI visibility tracker
Aidan Shaw says he more or less stopped paying for a bunch of SaaS this year. With Claude Code he built his own contract generator, his own finance dashboard and his own AI visibility tracker. He doesn't name the tools he dropped or what they cost, but his warning is clear: a lot of these tools are about to have a rough year. Three categories, three replacements, one builder. That's how waves work in this game: not one big boss, but a steady stream of small hits from every direction.
Kind of stopped paying for a bunch of SaaS this year.
Built my own contract generator, my own finance dashboard and my own AI visibility tracker. All with Claude Code.
I will tell you, a lot of these tools are about to have a rough year.
