Re-evaluating Build vs. Buy in the Age of AI

The math changed and most buying committees are still running the old spreadsheet. The question is no longer whether you could build it, it is what the build actually costs once you count maintenance, security, and the person who owns it on Monday. We put a real seat-based tool on the table and price both paths out loud.

The operator lens and the builder lens

Operator

Tony Bangert

Twenty five years in revenue operations, media, and subscription businesses. I spent that entire career in tech and never wrote a line of code until two years ago. Now I build most weekends. I still ask the operator question first: what does this do to the P&L, and who owns it Monday?

Builder

Eric Lovold

Two decades turning fuzzy problems into working software, from discovery through delivery at scale. I read the release notes the day they drop, then go run the thing myself. I can usually tell you what holds up in production and what only holds up in a demo.

You leave with one thing to do

Every session ends with one specific, doable action for the next thirty days. Next month we open by asking how it went.
