Original Summary

AI killed the coding moat. Anyone can spin up a SaaS in a weekend. But you know what AI can’t bypass? Two months of grueling API approvals from Shopify, Meta, Google and such big players. Building Helm taught me that bureaucracy is the new barrier to entry. The massive red tape acts as a filter, wiping out impatient founders looking for a quick launch. When you build an app that survives the big-tech approval gauntlet, you don't just get access to their massive audiences, you get a defensible asset. Even if you eventually list it on Acquire or TrustMRR, buyers will pay a premium simply to avoid the headache you already solved. Don't run from the red tape. Use it as your moat.   submitted by   /u/Substantial-Camp-888 [link]   [comments]
