Executive Summary
The largest technology companies are engaged in an unprecedented 'CapEx arms race,' spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure, which is consuming most of their free cash flow.
Hyperscalers like Google and AWS are the primary beneficiaries of the AI boom, reporting massive growth by selling compute to LLM companies and reselling AI services to enterprise customers.
A new class of AI-native enterprise companies is emerging, exemplified by Palantir's explosive growth and the startup Sierra's massive $15B valuation, challenging the traditional SaaS model.
The 'SaaSpocalypse' may be easing for some, as infrastructure-focused SaaS companies like Twilio show signs of re-acceleration by becoming essential 'plumbing' for AI agents and applications.
