Future of Software Companies TLDR: Independant founders will eat the world. • Software creation is expensive. • Developers are costly because they translate English to JavaScript. • LLMs are lowering software creation costs to zero over time. • Lower costs will lead to exponential growth in the quantity of startups. • One-size-fits-all solutions from corporations will be smashed by ultra-niched solutions that focus only on their audience • These founders will be “distributors” first. Their key talent will be distribution and winning the attention of their niche. • Founder-led companies will replace "Brands." The founder = Brand. • We can already see how Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, MrBeast, and Lex Friedman have stronger distribution than multi-billion corporations. It looks surreal, but it’s facts. • Successful founders of the future won’t be coders-first, just like the new gen of music artists didn't receive heavy music education. • VCs will invent a new investment model: investing in people. The sports, movie, and music world has had it for a century now. It'll become mainstream for startup founders and content creators, too.
