  <title>238: He Built an 8-Figure Software Company AI Still Can’t Replace with Dean Guida</title>
  <description>Dean Guida started Infragistics at 23 to build UX/UI tools for professional software developers. Thirty-seven years later, the company operates across six countries, its software is used by more than two million developers, and its customers span the entire S&amp;amp;amp;P 500—including Fidelity, Morgan Stanley, Exxon, Intuit, and Bank of America. But AI can now generate functional software in minutes. So what prevents a company like Infragistics from becoming obsolete? I wanted to understand which parts of software AI will commoditize, where lasting competitive moats will still exist, and why Dean believes the idea that software is disappearing has been dramatically oversold. We also talk about how he built a multi-8-figure company without outside capital, why he might raise money if he started again today, and what founders need to build once grit alone is no longer enough to scale. &amp;amp;nbsp; Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/3hogPdPFiX8 &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; Let’s Connect: Website&amp;amp;nbsp;|&amp;amp;nbsp;Instagram&amp;amp;nbsp;|&amp;amp;nbsp;YouTube&amp;amp;nbsp;|&amp;amp;nbsp;TikTok&amp;amp;nbsp;|&amp;amp;nbsp;Twitter&amp;amp;nbsp;|&amp;amp;nbsp;Facebook </description>
