S6 Episode 10 Our Name Says Low-Code. We Stopped Selling It.

In this episode of The LowCode Podcast, we explore how AI is changing the economics of software development, from how much it costs to build an app to who actually owns it. We share why we at LowCode Agency made the decision to move away from no-code platforms like Bubble and Glide toward almost exclusively building custom software with AI, and what changed to make that possible.

We break down how advances in AI models like Claude Opus have made custom development faster and more affordable, turning projects that once took a year into builds that can now be completed in three to four months. You'll learn why this shift matters for businesses looking to scale without platform limitations, avoid vendor lock-in, and maintain full ownership of your software. We also discuss the challenges behind our transition, including restructuring our development team, and why no-code still makes sense in certain situations.

If you're planning to build an app, evaluating your current tech stack, or wondering how AI should influence your software strategy, this episode offers a practical perspective on making smarter development decisions. Because at the end of the day, the goal isn't to build with no-code or custom code. It's to choose whatever delivers the best outcome for your business.
