Services: The New Software — Julien Bek
https://sequoiacap.com/article/services-the-new-software/Summary
Julien Bek argues the next trillion-dollar company will be a software company masquerading as a services firm. The key distinction: copilots sell tools to professionals, but autopilots sell outcomes directly to end customers — capturing the vastly larger services market where for every dollar spent on software, six are spent on services. Opportunity sectors include insurance brokerage ($140-200B), accounting ($50-80B), and legal ($20-25B). The optimal wedge is outsourced, intelligence-heavy tasks before expanding as AI capabilities compound.
