Why the Next Generation of Enterprise Software Looks Nothing Like Salesforce

The gist

1. Lightfield stores a chronological activity log and lets AI infer structure, so you can change your data model later without losing history.
2. Peiris recommends splitting pricing into platform fees for core usage, consumption pricing for high-variance features, and per-feature fees for automations.
3. Rather than competing with Salesforce on features, Lightfield targets high-growth startups first and uses their logos to expand into new verticals.
4. When pivoting away from a working product, Peiris says to ignore external noise and focus entirely on one core customer pain.
