I’m tracking this space closely — AI microapps, software on demand, and what comes after SaaS. Follow for real signal (no hype)

🚨 GPT-5 just made software on demand real. In the live demo, they built a working app in 2 minutes from a single prompt. This changes everything for SaaS, no-code, and AI microtools. 🧵 Here’s what it means (and who should be worried) 👇

🧵6/6 We’re moving toward a world where the barrier to “building software” is… basically gone. The winners will be those who design delightful, reliable experiences on top of raw AI power.

🧵5/6 This raises some huge questions: •Does GPT-5 kill traditional SaaS? •Who owns the interface layer between people & AI? •What happens when anyone can build software in minutes?

🧵4/6 The big unlock isn’t the coding. It’s software on demand — apps that solve a problem instantly, for a single user, without a dev team.

🧵 3/6 To survive, these micro-app builders will need to: ✅ Become a UX layer on top of GPT-5 ✅ Add trust, iteration, and human oversight ✅ Make it easier to launch & share than ChatGPT itself

@gregisenberg Great tip for people who wanna start building an email list without a lot of effort. You can use theleap.co for free to create a quick landing page to promote the loom, capture the emails and even add a small price point The Leap will handle the payment processing.

No one talks about this but you can use Loom as a "lead magnet" in 10 minutes or less: 1) Record a Loom jam packed with value 2) Request email to view loom 3) Share Loom link on social or paid ads 4) Get thousands of emails 5) You now know there's demand for your product

@gregisenberg 100% I am surprised you don't have education as one of the main value drivers, it's been key in the communities I have built at Hootsuite & Later.com

Hey, I'm ex-Reddit advisor and sold a community platform to WeWork. I noticed something BIG recently if you're looking to build cash-flowing internet businesses: There are 1.8B active users in Facebook Groups in 2024 But I've noticed 95% of paid communities are dead. RIP. There's something new taking its place. Memberships are the new internet community. Let me explain… grab a coffee it's worth understanding When 2020 hit, the world moved to internet communities. Facebook Groups skyrocketed to 1B+ active users. Discord hit $15B valuation. Group chat was the new social network. Now, most of these communities were free. But naturally, people wanted to monetize these communities. "Pay us a monthly fee and you’ll get access to a community." Every Tom, Dick and Harry were selling paid communities. Money was flowing. Until it wasn't. Retention was the major issue. People just weren’t coming back and would rather spend their money on IRL things like going to Coachella or traveling to Europe. Turns out selling a velvet rope wasn’t the right product for monetizing most of these communities. Something has shifted over the last 18 months. The communities that are actually working aren’t communities, they’ve become memberships. What’s the difference? Let's break it down. A paid community is paying for access to: 1. Community The team is usually a community manager or a founder + community manager A membership includes things like: 1. Community 2. Paid newsletter 3. Discounts & deals 4. IRL events 5. Software 6. Job boards 7. Digital assets (templates, resources etc). 8.Etc The team is usually founder, community manager, content team, product team. Here's how to think of it: A membership is a swiss army knife, a paid community is a spoon. Sometimes a spoon is helpful, especially when you’re trying to eat a hot soup. But try cutting a rib steak with a spoon. You’ll be there all night. Good luck! Memberships are 10x more versatile, 10x more value, 10x more word-of-mouth and 10x better retention The memberships that outperform have 2 things in common: 1) A strong identity (being a part of something, rallying behind a mission) 2) People who are trying to get from point A to point B (a transition needs to occur) I’m spending a lot of my energy thinking about memberships: Because I believe that there will be some mega businesses that might look like “silly little memberships” right now that blossom into some mega memberships in the future. Community is the currency of the new internet and memberships is how you’ll get paid. And make the most impact. The future of internet communities are memberships. You heard it here first. Are you seeing the same thing I am? Communities dying, memberships thriving.... Where community is A product, not the product

@uncleweed @thinkific @CameronU Well Teachable broke all their legacy agreements with me. They shut down 3 of my courses, and then limited my only course standing to no new enrolees unless I signed up for a year..so I left & signed up for a year with Thinkific and now Teachable gets no money. Planks.

How to build a company in 2023 (with no investors) : 1. Short form video 2. Short form video + newsletter 3. Short form video + newsletter + free community 4. Short form video + newsletter + free community + paid community 5. Short form video + newsletter + free community + paid community + product Why start with short form? Algorithms are hungry for them. Feed them what they want. If this post had videos instead of images, it would probably reach 2-3x more people. Video is the single greatest storytelling medium we have. People are 10x more likely to be connected to you from consuming videos than a few words. Note: the most exceptional short-form video creators, are some of the best writers I've ever met. They write beautiful scripts in their sleep. So the tip is to start with a platform like X or LinkedIn to become a good writer and then evolve to video. Once you're getting attention with short form, a newsletter builds that relationship (and you get an email address). This is the Morning Brew stage of your business. You can also create a free community to nurture and build trust. But 99% of these fail. The best free communities (digital or IRL), have rituals, education and entertainment. A paid community can be a monthly subscription for power customers. But only build this when you've proven out PMF with your free community. It's not uncommon to build a $10k-100k/month paid community in B2B. And the margins are pretty. By the time you've built an audience, newsletter, free community, paid community, you probably know what product you need to build. This is where you're building serious enterprise value. This is your retirement plan. This is your 401k. I call it 401C (401 community). But maybe the biggest takeaway of all of this is it's probably time to get your ideas out there. Getting LOUD on the internet is still somehow undervalued. You don't need a big team, don't need VCs really. This is your roadmap to build your empire. -- Share this post if you found it helpful. That's how I know you like this sorta content. Follow @gregisenberg for more of this sorta stuff. Easy follow. Btw, I also put together a free 5 day course on how to build a company powered by community communityempire dot co Enjoy.
