The ceiling right now is taste. Agents can build what you tell them to build faster than ever. They can't tell you what's worth building. Garry Tan isn't impressive because he has 10 AI workers. He's impressive because he has 20 years of pattern recognition telling those workers what to do. Give the same Claude Code setup to someone without that context and you get a lot of well-structured code...
Will AI agents fully replace humans, and what is the ceiling of their capacity?

Not a 10+ year dev but I've shipped a few things with Cursor + Claude and I think the middle ground you're looking for is: vibecode the parts users touch, engineer the parts that handle their data. Frontend, landing pages, onboarding flows, dashboards? Vibecode all of it. Nobody cares how clean your component tree is if nobody's using the product yet. But anything touching auth, payments, or...

Hey from Midwest. Building Shortlist, prepping for launch, trying not to lurk.
Hey, I'm Curtis. Building Shortlist. AI that finds SDR/BDR/AE candidates for you. Tell it the role, get real candidates back. Free to try. I've also worked for years in BD & Onboarding so I have first hand experience onboarding new employees as well as the field I'm specifically targeting. Started Shortlist because I kept seeing the same problem: founders spending weeks and $20K+ trying to hire...

The part that resonated most: building the new feature page right after hitting parity. That's the actual ROI. The old site wasn't bad, it was frozen. The cost of a website isn't what you paid to build it, it's every change you didn't make because the friction was too high. Curious how you're handling the ongoing content workflow now. Blog posts, case studies, landing pages. Are non-technical...
We paid $25k for our website. I vibe-coded a new one in 2 days.

The framework that's worked for me: the free tier should deliver enough value that the user can clearly see what the paid version would do for them at scale. If free gives them nothing useful, they leave and never come back. If free gives them everything, they never pay. The sweet spot is free delivers a real result, but the natural next action requires upgrading. For example with my product...
How do you decide what features should be free and what should be paid?
