Indian vibe coding platform Emergent — targeting non-developers — reached $100M ARR with 6M users (70% non-technical) and 7M apps created. This confirms the market is splitting into professional (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf for engineers) and consumer (Emergent, Bolt for everyone else) segments. The consumer segment is growing faster but building different things (internal tools, simple apps). TechCrunch
