<b>Heard: the "AI social manager" startups are one model price change from dead</b>
Most of the slick "autopilot your socials" tools that raised last cycle are thin wrappers on a single model API. Their whole margin depends on that model staying cheap. When the provider reprices — and they do — the wrapper either eats the cost into bankruptcy or passes a brutal hike to you. The tell: no proprietary data, no platform partnerships, just a chat box over your calendar. Don't build a content engine you can't run if the vendor vanishes mid-quarter. Keep your prompts and templates portable. Watching this.
