Open source is the future of SaaS.
@marclou built his newsletter tool with a few prompts in Opus 5.5, which means anyone can. Code is no longer a moat.
So you might as well give it away and let it be your free marketing. There will always be lazy people whoโd rather pay you to host it.
@wickedguro did exactly this with Postiz and it now makes $245k MRR.
So many people asked me to make it open-source, so here you go:
