I’d argue that many new AI startups are simply agents built on top of existing, established workflows. With today’s agent SDKs and AI coding tools, building them is incredibly easy.

But as people ship faster, often without understanding scalable system design, we’re heading toward an era of slow, fragile, and unscalable Saas. I believe that eventually products built on solid infra early will outlast the wave of slop--like how facebook outlived friendster. That's why I built Calfkit.


Possibly. However I’m not particularly tied to Kafka either so I wouldn’t be opposed to adding compatibility with alternative lighter weight options later on.
