the death of saas
AIit started with a simple question: what happens to all the saas tools we use when ai can build or replace them? the death of saas tracks the products, tools, and categories that are becoming easier to replace with ai. it helps you see what’s changing, what’s becoming unnecessary, and where the next opportunities might be.

What works
1,358 real, named tools with an actual price and a blunt yes/kinda/not really verdict is genuinely fun to browse and has real utility, unlike vague "AI will kill SaaS" takes. The category breakdown and filters (by category, by killer, by verdict) turn a listicle into something you'd actually search.
The biggest problem
The core verdict (YES/KINDA/NOT REALLY) has no visible methodology, no criteria, no source, just a label next to a price. For a site whose whole premise is "trust this instead of the tool," an unexplained verdict is exactly as trustworthy as the marketing copy it's replacing.
Top suggestion
Add one line of reasoning per verdict, even a sentence: "YES, a Claude project with 3 prompts replicates this." Right now the verdict is an opinion dressed as data.
would you actually use this to decide which saas tools to try, replace, or stop paying for? why or why not?
Not yet, not without seeing the reasoning behind a verdict. I'd trust "Vendr, YES" a lot more if I could see WHY in one sentence, right now it reads like a fun list, not a decision tool.
what would make you come back to this site?
If it updated with real "someone actually replaced X with a prompt" stories, or if I could check a tool I personally pay for and see a real breakdown, not just a label. Right now there's no reason to return after one browse.
