No-code isn’t scalable. Our learnings at FINN going from 1000 toward 100,000 car subscriptions

This is my take on nocode. Every nocode tool out there is utter garbage.
This has all been done before. C.A.S.E. Computer aided Software Engineering
was all the buzz in the 80's and it was garbage back then too. Thus ends my mini rant.

This is the number one issue right now with no-coding. It doesn't scale, and it quickly becomes expensive.

That being said, I think no-code isn't necessarily made to scale.

No-code is fantastic for quickly validating an idea and as soon you have traction. Then you can build it yourself or pay someone to do so.

That is what no-code is perfect for. But let's see where no-code is in one year from now. The last year, it's been developing blazing fast.

I thought that was the point of no code? You can test ideas quickly, build traction and then if the idea pans out build it out properly?

For my previous companies I had to vet the idea as best I could and then work with my expensive developers from step one. While they were amazing, this part always killed me as the product was adapting to use cases and feedback and building something worthwhile was always $xx,xxx.

With no-code I'm able to build a project to profitability and let the revenue fund the development of a scalable site. This also helps reduce the long term development cost for the project as I have a clear scope on what needs to be built, rather than a feedback loop during the initial phase I previously had for my projects.

Interesting that they couldn't make it work.

Wasn't this always known?
