Traditional SaaS is changing rapidly. The era of web-fronted tools automating niche workflows is on the decline 📉, while vertical SaaS built on deep technical expertise is thriving.   Basic, high-level workflow automation tools are indeed becoming obsolete due to advances in AI. However, vertical SaaS solutions that are based on deep technical knowledge and understanding of the real underlying problems can still thrive, as they offer real solutions for real pain points instead of quick wins in an enterprise setting. Take Shapr3D, for example: by focusing on the nuanced needs of designers and engineers, it has carved out a serious competitive moat with industry-specific solutions. Thus, the moats are immense: 🔑 Industry Expertise: Deep understanding of specific challenges. 🎨 User-Centric Design: Intuitive interfaces that cater to user needs. 🛠️ Technical Prowess: Advanced capabilities tailored for the industry. 🔗 Deep System Integrations: Seamless connections with existing tools. Curious about the future of SaaS and want to dive deeper? Join us at First Monday for an engaging discussion with István Csanády, CEO of Shapr3D. Don’t miss it - link in the comments!
