Cost savings have always been a driving force in business decisions. The shift from on-premises to SaaS initially aimed at reducing costs. While SaaS is no longer cheaper, it offers enhanced features. However, AI agents and open-source workflows reintroduce the aspect of cost savings in operations. Companies need to adapt to this changing landscape to survive, as demonstrated by successful ventures with minimal staff. The future lies in creating efficient, high-value businesses with open-source technologies, AI, and bots driving a paradigm shift.
