Technology vendors are wooing the customers and outlining their agentic AI roadmaps and product direction at annual conferences. But two words should give you pause: Private preview.

The SaaS apocalypse had a good run as a narrative. For a few months, the prevailing wisdom was that vibe coding, AI agents, and a generation of developers armed with Claude and Codex would roll their own software and walk away from the enterprise SaaS stack entirely. Episode 129 of ConstellationTV put that narrative in front of Constellation analysts Larry Dignan, Esteban Kolsky, and Martin Schneider, and the result was a nuanced, honest debate (in which they don't all agree).

For anyone who follows Constellation analyst Liz Miller's research, the premise is not new. She has been talking about Amazon Connect as an engagement backbone for years, but her position has remained the same: it is more than a contact center platform.
