Noah Kagan says Claude Max killed $15,788 a year of software, Carta and Zapier included
Two more subscriptions fall to the horde. Noah Kagan says Carta, at $11K a year, was replaced overnight. Zapier, at $4,788 a year, went to $0 once Claude rebuilt the two of his 123 automations that were doing 88% of the work. Add it up and $15,788 a year of software got swapped for $2,400 a year of Claude Max, and Noah counts the productivity gains as the bigger win. The catch is one he spots himself: there's no way that $200 a month price holds. Even the zombie army has a landlord, and the landlord can raise the rent.
Saving, as stated by the author: $15,788 a year of software replaced by $2,400 a year of Claude
Claude Max is the BEST DEAL ON THE INTERNET. 🤯
$200 a month. That's it.
Here's what it already killed for me:
Carta: $11K a year → $0. Replaced overnight.
Zapier: $4,788 a year → $0. 2 of my 123 automations were doing 88% of the work. Claude rebuilt them.$15,788 a year of software.
Replaced by $2,400 a year of Claude.And that's before the productivity gains. Those are the real win.
There is NO WAY they don't raise prices.
Everyone should be trying to hit 100% of their limits by the end of the week. I'm close 👇
