# Vibecoding: How Curative Killed a $600k Salesforce Bill

For those not in the loop, "vibecoding" is essentially the art of describing what you want to an LLM agent and letting it handle the heavy lifting while you just steer the vibes. Instead of hiring a small army of expensive consultants to customize a legacy platform, they used AI coding tools to build a bespoke solution that actually fits their workflow.

This is the ultimate real-world example of why LLM agents are terrifying for SaaS vendors. When you can go from "I wish this button did X" to a deployed feature in minutes, the value proposition of a massive enterprise contract starts to look like a joke.

If you're trying to replicate this "fire the vendor" energy in your own AI workflow, here is the basic stack for this kind of rapid deployment:

1. **The Brain:** [Claude](/en/tags/claude/) 3.5 Sonnet (the current king of coding logic).

2. **The Interface:** Cursor or Claude Code for deep codebase integration.

3. **The Loop:** Prompt -> Run -> Error -> Paste Error back to AI -> Repeat until it actually works.

The "gotcha" here is that you aren't just writing code; you're managing state and data migration. Moving off a platform like Salesforce isn't as simple as deleting an account—you have to extract your data without breaking everything.

```
# The typical 'vibecoding' cycle
git checkout -b feature/kill-salesforce
cursor . 
# "Hey Claude, build a lead management dashboard that doesn't make me want to quit my job"
npm run dev
# *sees 50 console errors*
# "Fix these errors"
# *it works*
git commit -m "saved $600k"
```

It’s a bold move, but it proves that the barrier between "idea" and "production-ready software" has basically vanished for anyone who knows how to prompt.
