I keep hearing the idea of IT consultants that with all the vibe-coding, a new industry opens: fixing vibe-coded codebases. Is that just a pipe-dream or do you see real potential there? It sounds logical on paper, but how does the actual market look like? I could imagine a number of problems why that would not work:
- The creator (company) already decided not to spend money on the product and use AI instead.
- The person managing the project using claude code is likely not experienced enough to even imagine how an external expert could help (instead, they hope for a better model like Fable to fix everything).
- I have yet to see a significant uptick of successful vibe coded projects (i.e. that managed to get into production). There are a few exceptions, like certain relatively simple apps that landed in the right market niche by accident or because the person using Claude Code has a background in marketing/product design, and those apps might need help with scaling (servers etc.), but I can imagine that market is small.
