... There's a popular narrative on social media right now that AI can build software so quickly and cheaply that SaaS is dead (or will be soon). Why pay for Linear when AI can build a project tracker in an afternoon? Why pay Stripe $30k/year when you can vibe code your own billing system in a weekend? The cost of building software has collapsed to near zero, therefore the value of selling software has collapsed to near zero. QED, SaaS ... ... happening, but it's not the death of SaaS. It's the death of bad SaaS. For years, you could build a mediocre product in an uncrowded category and charge for it simply because the cost of building an alternative

... Product Hunters! When my wife Noa and I heard that MTV was officially shutting down, it felt like the end of an era. As 90s kids, we missed that specific "linear" experience the joy of just turning on the TV and being surprised by a music video without an algorithm getting in the way. She joked that "someone needs to bring it back," and with her birthday coming up, I decided that someone would be me.

... been building products for a while, but over the last months I found myself increasingly frustrated with how we interact with AI. The models are insanely powerful yet the way we use them still feels oddly limiting. Linear chats, lost context, messy outputs, and very little room for real thinking or collaboration. That frustration is what led me to start building Genstellar a visual, spatial AI workspace designed to match how humans actually think, explore ideas, and work together. Still ... ... work with them. The big advantage over a normal chat isn t just a user intuitive workspace, it s context control .

... agents need code, not flowcharts. Opinionated platforms that abstract your agent s backend logic lead to a lack of control at critical moments. Observing and evaluating voice agents is hard because they are non-deterministic. These challenges scale non-linearly with real usage. Most teams don t want to build, maintain and manage their own voice infrastructure. We're making choices about how we build @Layercode accordingly, and want to hear from more builders in the voice AI space ... ...

... realized I don't like reading text linearly. Someone writes a text, and it's encoded by their writing style, knowledge, thinking patterns, and so on. Then I need to read it through, decode it, and understand if it was worth the effort. AI slop summaries don't work for me either. But I'd like a tool that lets me "read on my terms" - explore text in stages that I prefer, as shallow (topic/description/keywords) or as deep ... ... than simply bookmark my text and never read it. Do you have a workflow for reading/working with text? Do AI summaries work for you? It seems like AI could make the reading process more interactive instead of purely linear

... more predictable, efficient, and frustration-free. 2 Plan out the implementation A day spent planning can often save 3 days of development. Before we write a single line of code, we break down projects into extremely granular issues in Linear, with clear time estimates for each one.
