From Prompt to Product: Building an SaaS company in the world of Vibe Coding

AI did not replace developers. It replaced blank pages.

This session is a step by step playbook for building a SaaS product in the world of AI and vibe coding, without shipping a haunted codebase that only works on Tuesdays.

Adam will walk through a modern build workflow that pairs fast iteration with real engineering fundamentals: clear product constraints, ruthless scoping, AI assisted implementation, and a lightweight architecture that can survive the moment users show up.

You will learn how to:

Define a “thin but lovable” SaaS in one page

Use AI as a co builder, not a slot machine

Turn vague prompts into precise tasks and tickets

Pick a stack that ships fast and scales later

Avoid common vibe coding failure points like spaghetti features, prompt drift, and security oops

Instrument what matters so you know what to build next

The talk includes real examples, prompt patterns, and a repeatable build loop you can take home. You will leave with a checklist, a starter workflow, and the confidence to go from idea to working SaaS with fewer meetings and more momentum.
