In this episode, host Bidemi Ologundebreaks down the recent "SaaSpocalypse," the sudden market shock that sent software stocks tumbling as investors grappled with a new reality: what happens when AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic start offering capabilities that look a lot like traditional SaaS, but at a fraction of the cost? Why did so many once-defensible software businesses lose huge chunks of value in just days? Are AI agents about to crush the per-seat software model, or is this panic getting ahead of the facts? And in a world where the software can now do the work, what exactly will customers still be willing to pay for?
