Your customer can build it now, so sell what they can't

One company cancelled a $600K-a-year CRM after building its own, and Retool reports 35% of enterprises have already swapped a SaaS tool for an internal app. Peter Yang’s point is that nobody rebuilds your whole product, “just the 20% that matters”, so the feature list is no longer the moat. What they can’t clone is the upkeep: the data, the integrations, the security reviews and the person who answers when it breaks.

💡 Why it matters

AI makes the feature set of almost any product reproducible, so the alternative your buyer weighs is increasingly 'we'll do it ourselves' rather than another vendor, and most messaging still only argues against the vendor.
