Every SaaS business will become a harness around a model

A widely shared essay argues that software-as-a-service companies will increasingly be reduced to a thin layer of orchestration built around large AI models. The 'harness' — the tooling, interfaces and workflows wrapping the model — is claimed to become the company itself. The argument is drawing debate among founders and engineers about whether traditional SaaS products can retain value, or whether model providers will absorb most of it.

Why now: It challenges the business model of a large part of the tech industry at a moment of rapid AI adoption.
