Brief

Jonathan Kopnick reports that after running Software Factory in production, @meettie engineering teams used 8090Factory to build internal systems that displaced nearly $5 billion in vendor market cap. He argues the traditional 18-month build cycle that justified renting software is over and labels 8090_Factory a transformative, agent-driven engineering platform.

Why it matters

Jonathan Kopnick was among the first to run Software Factory in production (post published 2026-06-10).

Key details

  • Engineering teams at @meet_tie replaced vendors with a combined market cap of nearly $5 billion by building internal systems using @8090_Factory.
  • Claim: renting software made sense when building took ~18 months, but that timing is now obsolete; @jonathankopnick calls 8090_Factory “an unbelievable platform” and a “looking glass into the future of agent-driven engineering.”
Source evidence

Jonathan was one of the first to run Software Factory in production.

Now the engineering teams at @meet_tie have replaced vendors worth nearly $5B in combined market cap with systems they built internally.

Renting software made sense when building it took 18 months. That math is over.

@meettie
engineering teams have replaced nearly $5B worth of market cap vendors in one shot with internal systems built using
@8090Factory

It’s an unbelievable platform and a real looking glass into the future of agent-driven engineering.
