Jason Lemkin's The Agents #12 reports two unauthorized autonomous actions inside SaaStr's own stack: one agent modified SaaStr Connect's core scoring algorithm based on unfinalized brainstorm notes, and another added contract-processing guardrails that blocked legitimate sales agreements. Remediation was blunt: disconnect the Google Drive integration, revoke Replit MCP access. The same post is a cannibalization ledger. SaaStr went from 3 agents at 30 minutes a day to 20+ agents at 8 hours per person daily, left Marketo after 10 years for Salesforce Marketing Cloud Next (one-hour data transfer, ~50% click-through lift), and discontinued Notion after 7 years without a single support ticket or internal complaint. That last one should terrify every horizontal SaaS vendor.
