Creating software has changed. You no longer need to spend thousands of dollars on developers or even understand a single line of code. With no-code tools and advanced AI integrations, regular people—yes, even without tech backgrounds—can build, launch, and scale software businesses quickly. The best part? You can make serious money doing it.

Let’s break down how no-code SaaS and AI can help you build a profitable business in 2023, starting with the basics and moving into actionable steps.

Why No-Code SaaS is the Future

Software as a service (SaaS) has long been considered one of the best business models. Here’s why:

• Recurring revenue: Customers pay you every month for access to your software.
• Scalability: You build the software once, and it can be sold over and over again with little ongoing cost.
• High exit multiples: Successful SaaS businesses can sell for five to ten times their yearly revenue. That means if your SaaS business makes just $5,000 per month, you’re potentially sitting on a $300,000 asset.

With tools like Bubble, now anyone can build software without coding. Imagine having 100 customers paying you $50 a month. That’s a $300,000 business you can either continue growing or sell. It’s no longer a dream only for experienced developers.

The No-Code Revolution: Build Software Without Technical Skills

No-code tools allow people with no programming ability to create functional software. Platforms like Bubble give you an easy drag-and-drop interface, similar to how Shopify lets users build e-commerce stores without coding.

This isn’t just about websites or simple designs. You can create fully functional apps—ones like Airbnb, Uber, or any other complex application—using no-code platforms. And it gets even better when you incorporate AI.

Why AI-Driven No-Code Apps Will Make You Rich

First, let’s address the elephant in the room… Why isn’t everyone talking about no-code SaaS when it’s clearly such a great opportunity?

The answer is simple: Before now, developing SaaS required massive upfront costs. Hiring developers could easily cost tens of thousands of dollars, and testing your idea without knowing if it would work? A huge risk.

Now, it’s faster and cheaper to start than ever. You can whip up software in days. Want to change something? No problem. These platforms make it simple to tweak and improve your app as you grow, and the incorporation of AI makes your app even more powerful.

Let’s talk specifics.

Using AI to Power Your SaaS

One great example of a no-code SaaS leveraging AI is Tweet Hunter. This software, recently sold for millions of dollars after just one year, used OpenAI’s GPT-4 or Claude to generate tweets based on a user’s existing Twitter content.

The process behind it is simple: Tweet Hunter connects Twitter to GPT-4 via an API (which is basically just a way for one piece of software to interact with another) and uses AI to generate new tweets. This kind of automation saved tons of people time, helped grow Twitter accounts, and ultimately made Tweet Hunter a highly desirable asset.

By combining AI with your no-code app, you can build products that solve real problems, offer huge value to customers, and generate impressive profits—all without needing a traditional development team.

3 Ways No-Code SaaS Will Make You Rich

1. Build and Sell Apps Quickly

If you’ve got an idea for software that solves a specific problem, no-code platforms make it possible to turn that idea into reality in days—not months.

The Tweet Hunter story is a prime example: They built an app that helped people go viral on Twitter by automating their tweet generation. In just 18 months, they sold the business for millions. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Just find a small niche, build your solution, and scale.

Here’s a typical journey:

1. Find a problem worth solving. Dive into niche industries or everyday pain points that people deal with.
2. Build your app using Bubble or another no-code tool.
3. Use AI to beef up your product’s functionality and like integrating GPT-4 APIs to automate tasks or provide insights. Check out our cookie page.
4. Scale rapidly and sell. As shown, experiences like Tweet Hunter prove that even a small SaaS product can lead to massive gains in a short timeframe.

2. Automate Business Operations with Your SaaS

Most businesses use several tools to manage their daily operations. They might use Trello for project management, Salesforce for CRM, and Zendesk for customer support. The problem? Syncing information across all these platforms leads to communication gaps and wasted time.

You can offer a solution. Using a no-code tool like Make.com, you can connect and automate software for companies, offering them a simple dashboard that pulls together all their critical tools. This kind of service is gold for businesses that want to enhance productivity.

Let’s break it down:

• Dashboards that unify tools: You can help businesses see data from multiple services in one place.
• Automated workflows: Automatically create tasks in project management tools when issues are flagged in customer support software.
• Weekly reports: Automatically generate and send important summaries to leadership every week.

This makes business operations smoother, faster, and more productive. If you want a prime example, we did this for a real estate company, linking nine different tools into one. The result? The company saved 30% of time every day and got rid of unnecessary tabs and confusion.

Once you build this kind of automation, the potential to scale and sell it to other businesses in the same niche becomes limitless.

3. Start a Business Helping Other Businesses

If you don’t have an idea for your own SaaS product yet, here’s another approach: Create an agency that builds custom SaaS platforms or internal automation systems for other businesses.

This is exactly what we did for our real estate client. Once you create a unified system, sprinkle in advanced AI, and streamline operations, companies save time—and time is money. When you offer software that saves businesses thousands of dollars per month, they’ll happily pay you big bucks to build it for them.

You can charge tens of thousands of dollars for a custom internal platform or even collect recurring revenue by offering ongoing support and updates.

Among key tools for this:

• Bubble: For the framework and design of the platform.
• Make.com: To connect different software apps together and build automated workflows.

How to Get Started with No-Code SaaS

It all starts with an idea. And guess what? It doesn’t need to be completely original or complex.

Find a SaaS Idea

Here are some tips:

• Think of simple, repetitive pain points you encounter every day.
• Look into niche markets that aren’t well served by existing software.
• Ask business owners what frustrates them in their workflows.

Once you have an idea, use Bubble to build it. If you’re new to Bubble, sign up for my free 90-minute tutorial that walks you through building an AI-driven app from scratch. In the tutorial, we cover everything from design, connecting AI APIs, to creating the payment gateway with Stripe.

Start Building and Iterating

What some people don’t realize is how quickly you can build. My team—brand new to Bubble—created a fully functional app in just three days. It was ready to take on paying customers. If you get stuck, there’s a huge library of free templates to help you get started.

That’s how powerful no-code tools are. You aren’t just saving money—you’re saving time and reducing barriers to entry.

The Value of Learning and Specialized Skills

Even if your first software idea doesn’t hit the mark, you’ve gained a valuable skillset. The ability to build software or automate business processes is something people will pay big money for. You’ll have a skill that is relevant for years to come.

In fact, the more tech-savvy business owners become, the more they’ll look to experts to help streamline their systems or build custom software. Think about it: If you’re the person who can do that for a company, you’ll never be out of demand.

Embrace the Future: Build Now or Hire Pros

AI and no-code software development eliminate the excuses that once held so many people back. You don’t need a computer science degree or a huge budget to build a profitable SaaS business anymore. The only thing standing between you and the wealth-building potential of SaaS is learning the basics.

If you’re ready, I encourage you to start learning with my free course, or if you’re already in business and want pros to build it for you, reach out to our development agency from the link below.
