Helius CEO Mert posted on the X platform that he created the seed-stage project Checkprice within a week using AI coding (vibe coding). He believes that as the time and cost of software and product iteration decreases, the startup model will undergo a permanent transformation. Founders can raise $100,000 in seed funding, and there will be no excuse not to demonstrate growth momentum or deliver a product prototype before seeking millions of dollars in funding. This change will lead to increased competition between products, and founders with strong distribution and storytelling abilities will dominate due to easier replication and faster iteration. Finally, he predicts this trend will begin in 2026 and fully materialize within 5 years.
