Devibecoding as a Service? ๐ก
Apparently my brain won't stop thinking about vibecoding today so here is another one.
๐ In my previous posts I defined vibecoding as code nobody fully understands, and devibecoding as the process of making it yours. But what if you can't or don't want to do that yourself?
๐ข I think there's a business model emerging here. More and more startups and small companies vibecode their MVPs. Some of those actually get traction. And suddenly you have a prototype that works, has users, maybe even revenue โ but the code underneath is a black box nobody on the team truly understands.
๐ง Enter devibecoding as a service. A spectrum from self-help to full takeover:
โก Tools that help you understand and restructure your own vibecoded codebase
โก Consulting and code audits that identify the critical gaps
โก Full transformation โ taking a vibecoded prototype and turning it into a maintainable business application
๐ค This isn't entirely new โ agencies have always rescued messy codebases. But the scale could be different. If vibecoding lowers the barrier to building software, the number of prototypes that need "growing up" will explode.
๐ฌ Think of it as the natural next step: vibecoding creates, devibecoding matures. And there might be a whole industry in between.
Would you pay for devibecoding as a service? Or is "just rewrite it properly" always the better answer?
