We’ve curated Annual 25′ for founders and the SaaS community to use as a springboard to explore beyond the horizon. We are on the brink of a significant transformation that will impact humanity’s future. A new age is emerging, where founders who effectively combine artificial intelligence, industry knowledge, software advancements, and a focus on human-centred services will establish leading and thriving enterprises.

Spyne has eschewed positioning itself as a low-cost alternative to legacy incumbents – a common playbook for Indian SaaS players – and has instead established itself as a premium high-quality offering accessible to all segments of the industry.
Spyne has proven that complex AI solutions can be sold and deployed globally without expensive field sales and services by productizing their domain expertise into a suite of self-serve demos and easy onboarding workflows.

The AI transformation sweeping through enterprise software isn’t merely a technological shift – it’s a business model revolution disguised as a technology upgrade.

As we prepare for SaaSBoomi Annual ’25, one question comes to the centre. How much of the content should be about AI? We had differing opinions. We then ran a survey with founders. The verdict was that 90% of the content should be about AI and how to understand the opportunities. There was also a fear of missing out and the apprehensions about what this transition could mean to our companies.

Today, software is a tool to enhance productivity, but with AI models, softwa®e will do the work. What happens when a model can do most of the work of an accountant, lawyer, or doctor? It changes the market for software to the market for “work”.
