AI is coming for your SaaS platform. Here's how to fight back.

Every traditional SaaS Platform is now ripe for disruption because of AI. In prior platform shifts, the transformation was obvious. From Spreadsheets → Software, On-Premise → Cloud, Desktop → Mobile, these were all natural progressions. But with AI, we’re going into uncharted territory.

Think about it. If you take a step back and squint for a moment, the core functionality for a CRM Platform hasn’t shifted that much from tracking it in a Spreadsheet to Goldmine, to Oracle CRM to Salesforce. The UX largely stayed the same, the pricing, the access, the convenience, the speed, it all got better and better.

But this time around, with this Platform Shift with AI, the UX for how Humans use Software may be changing for ever. We’ve shifted from the Spreadsheet-era to the SaaS-era but now we’re headed to the AI-era. Existing platforms are going to be disrupted in ways they don’t see coming yet.

There are going to be winners and losers in this massive Platform Shift. In this post we dig into how to get your traditional SaaS Platform battle-ready to stay relevant in this AI-shift.

Specifically we’ll be covering:

• How to assess whether your SaaS platform is at risk
  

• How to shift your GTM Strategy and Strategic Narrative for AI Relevance
  

• How to transform your SaaS business into an AI-relevant Leader

Let’s get into it.
