AI-embedded SaaS is growing roughly 2x faster than legacy SaaS in the same ARR band, without the inference-cost margin compression pure AI-native firms eat. Median NRR drifted only slightly, and mid-market and enterprise accounts still churn 1-2% monthly while expanding 15-25% annually. The disruption is real but concentrated in SMB and seat-heavy categories. A useful corrective if you're sizing the actual threat instead of the headline.
