The value in Shiphero is their integrations: https://www.shiphero.com/integrations

If you need them, they're very valuable. If you're working with many companies that you rely on to ship, Shiphero is maybe worth it. For a single company, it probably isn't.

However, this is exactly why I do not invest in SaaS companies anymore in the stock market. Having the ability to build custom software for your business is an incredible super power. I think this also puts a lot of price pressure on SaaS companies overall.

Yep, this is my experience with Claude code. Given clear requirements it can build an app. And it excels at complicated but well documented tasks like integrations. The only issue is that I don't see any code review or tests or risk audit. But those are just prompts, so easy to add.
