Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

An audit of 50 top SaaS companies looked at how each one positions against the foundation models their own customers now ask about. 34 have shipped MCP servers or connectors, so the models route through their product instead of around it. Only 12 mention Claude anywhere on their own domain, and just 4 publish a build versus buy cost comparison for prospects tempted to roll their own. Zapier connects 9,000 apps over MCP, while Intercom hands enterprise buyers a 20-question checklist for evaluating AI agents against a raw model.
