You could make the core of 4Degrees for yourself: sales pipeline and reports. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. - You could make: Sales pipeline and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could make: It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too. - You could not: It plugs into other products, PitchBook, Salesforce and Gmail among them, and has an API. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
