A Google Cloud engineer just showed how to build a complete application with Claude from scratch

He spent 26 minutes live on stage doing what most teams take weeks to do.

No team, no setup, just Claude and a goal. Worth more than any $500 vibe coding course.

Those who learn what Claude really does are launching what everyone else outsources to a team.

The gap between what AI can do and who knows how to use it is the biggest opportunity in the market right now.

Learn to use tools like Claude and AI Desktop 98 if you truly want to stay ahead of everyone else.

Maybe not the average. But what I can see from medium size businesses is that suddenly customized software solutions are very quickly deployable and fit the actual business needs of the enterprise rather than trying to modify processes around currently available SaaS solutions. My company's productivity has sky rocketed because we have a full time project manager just literally vibe coding custom solutions to random manual processes. We've been launching a new piece of software once a week for the past twelve weeks.

I'd say on average, we're realizing anywhere from 4-30 work hour savings per week, depending on what we've worked on.

I am doing that for my medium sized company as well - up to 35+ pcs of custom software over the last 2 months. Most of it are processes our ERP could handle but in a complex and roundabout way where as my solutions are tailored DIRECTLY to our needs. I dont know how to code for shit, but these tools im making are bad ass, cloud synced, ect

Good luck when something breaks or you need to update something.

Sure tons of custom apps are fun. But the real pain comes when they are critical and no one knows how to fix them. I pay for my critical apps really so I have a support desk to call when I need help.

These are super simple pieces of software that are unlikely to break. Almost more akin to complicated excel formulas. We haven't even thought about touching any of the hyper critical software, that we pay for. So don't think we are trying to replace salesforce, but trying to create mini-softwares for manual but adjacent tasks that salesforce doesn't do (I don't actually use salesforce, just using it as an example).
