the SaaS middle class is getting wiped out

It feels like every SaaS company has the same AI roadmap right now: bolt on a chat box, call it an "agent," raise prices. My guess is that when the dust settles, only the extremes win. On one end: broad platforms with distribution, integrations, trusted data and enough capital to become the default operating layer. On the other: painfully specific AI tools that own one expensive workflow better than anyone else. The middle is where it gets rough. Generic tools with low switching costs, weak data moats and features that can be replicated in a month don't have anywhere to hide. If the product doesn't save real labor, handle real risk or become embedded in how a company operates, it's probably just another tab someone closes. That tracks with the growing pressure on horizontal point solutions while domain-specific products and large incumbents keep strengthening their position.
