Back to our regularly scheduled programming :)

Just talked to a guy making $9K/month with a tiny, niche tool.

Highlights:

why building for ONE person is better than everyone
the one piece of content that got him hundreds of users overnight
and his 5-step playbook for building profitable dev tools in 2026

this one you 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘵 miss😁

@ErnestoSOFTWARE

he is right,

The app space has completely shifted.

Marketing Gym apps to $100k/mo no longer Requires paying jacked influencers $3000 per reel.

people are already making their own AI influncers for less than $100/mo

These apps are incredibly easy to monetize and charge upfront
with a hard paywall.

( everyone wants to be fit ) and
Nobody wants to be fat

thats why most of these apps ( the ones that understand marketing )

make over $100k/mo

They deliver a great product

how to build an ai native vertical saas in the claude cowork era:

  1. pick a sub-niche inside a large, profitable market
  2. map one recurring workflow that drives revenue or saves time
  3. write the workflow step-by-step like you’re training an intern
  4. separate mechanical steps from judgment calls
  5. connect claude to the actual stack: crm, sheets, inbox, slides, contracts
  6. remove exports and copy-paste from the process
  7. collapse raw data → reasoning → finished output into one session

We are so disgustingly early to
get rich with AI apps

There is no bubble
Look at the chart below

84% of people have never even used AI

Your timeline has convinced you that apps will get saturated but,

It doesn’t matter if the AppStore gets flooded with AI slop apps.

there are infinite consumers out there willing to pay for yours

Just make it stand out.

I have 11 apps, some ranking top #50

most in saturated niches
And they still make $70k/mo

Vibe Coding Is the New Product Management

“There’s been a shift—a marked pronouncement in the last year and especially in the last few months—most pronounced by Claude Code, which is a specific model that has a coding engine in it, which is so good that I think now you have vibe coders, which are people who didn’t really code much or hadn’t coded in a long time, who are using essentially English as a programming language—as an input into this code bot—which can do end-to-end coding.

there's a reason why some people profit from new AI releases on day 1 while you're still watching tutorials...

they don't know the tools better than you, they know the principles

a software engineer gets almost the same quality from Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode... because he understands what's happening under the hood

@tibo_maker

the next gold rush isn't AI developers, it's product managers

when a hard technical skill gets replaced by a tool, the person closest to the problem beats the person closest to the tool

before desktop publishing, you needed typesetters & graphic designers with highly technical skills to produce anything print-worthy

the tools were expensive, complex and gatekept by specialists

then PageMaker & the Mac came and suddenly the bottleneck shifted

the typesetters didn't become more valuable

I've been seeing a lot of "claude just killed our startup" type posts.

important reminder: build for normies. don't build for ai native people setting up openclaw and living in Claude Code everyday

lots of opportunities out there.

if you build for ai native folks, you better be focused on data moats or something extremely defensible (if you can find it)
