Pitched a white-labeled Claude app, NeverSchelling had already built one for about $20 a month
NeverSchelling has been pitched a white-labeled Claude app for the third time in as many months. The reply: sorry, already built this myself months ago, and it processes more than 400 checks a month for about $20 in tokens. SaaS is dead, comes the sign-off. The post doesn't say more about what the app does, but it's a perfect snapshot of the new sales problem. When you pitch a wrapper around an AI model, your buyer might already own the same wrapper. The zombie got there first.
Saving, as stated by the author: about $20/month in tokens for 400+ checks
3rd time in as many months I’ve been pitched a white-labeled Claude app.
Sorry bro, I built this out myself months ago and it processes 400+ checks a month for ~$20 in tokens.
SaaS is dead.
