AI Moves From Feature to Foundation

Generative AI has shifted from a differentiator to an expectation. Products without built-in summarization, drafting, or semantic search feel dated to buyers who have used AI-native tools elsewhere. The winners are rebuilding workflows around LLMs, not bolting on a chat box.

Usage-Based Pricing Goes Mainstream

Flat subscriptions face pressure from buyers who want pricing to track actual consumption. Expect more hybrid models — a small platform fee plus usage overage — especially for infrastructure and AI-heavy categories.

  • AI-native workflows replacing static UIs
  • Usage-based and hybrid pricing models
  • Platform consolidation and tool fatigue
  • Stronger security posture from day one
  • Vertical SaaS taking ground from horizontal incumbents
“The SaaS playbook from 2015 still works in parts — but the parts that do not are exactly where the competition is moving.”

Vertical Wins Over Horizontal

Buyers prefer deeply integrated vertical tools over generic horizontal platforms they have to configure. Expect more software purpose-built for specific industries, embedded with domain workflows and data models out of the box.
