If this takes off, IFTTT and Zapier will just create their own versions of it (if they're not working on it already).
This is why I feel new startups that are trying to disrupt established tech companies using LLMs are doomed/have no moat or technical advantage. Incumbents have the manpower and distribution to replicate everything in house. Not to mention the incentive to add "AI" to their service description which will boost their valuation automatically.
Zapier is already trying! We actually did our live launch at the same event as them for their new chat product -- https://central.zapier.com/. At the moment though, they're pretty focused on fine-grained control and GUI configurability, which makes a lot of sense for their existing technical user-base. We're focusing on a super simple UX for less technical users.
I feel quite differently about this kind of startup. Multiple incumbents show that it's a large enough market to support additional players, and the incumbents often have restrictions on their behavior that a new company can avoid. Finding a new niche can lead to competing with the "big boys" with a fraction of their overhead.
I actually thought parent made a very valid point, not to throw stones at OP, this is good execution congratulations, this tech isn't that tough to build for a company like Zapier and you are right that it already offers a mature set of workflows.
We are at "spray and pray" phase of this AI/LLM bubble. Very good insight.
