PRIMEPULSE sees AI shifting software industry value from code to requirements expertise
  • AI-driven software replication threatens vendors’ pricing power, shifting competitive advantage from code ownership to business requirements expertise, Stefan Fritz argues.
  • Easier migration from legacy systems could weaken customer lock-in, undermining annual price increases and software investment assumptions.
  • Software valuations should increasingly reflect how quickly companies identify customer needs rather than the size of their existing code bases.
  • Lower development costs could make custom software more attractive, benefiting businesses with strong process knowledge and reducing dependence on external vendors.
