Ramp's tool, 'Glass,' started internally and is now widespread enough to be part of new-hire onboarding, and has recently launched externally as a product. Stripe's version, 'Harbor,' was built by a single engineer in about six weeks. Reasons given for building in-house rather than using vendors like Lovable, Replit, or Retool include low investment cost, safer access to internal data, adherence to internal design systems, high non-engineer adoption, avoiding vendor procurement overhead, and upskilling engineers in AI infrastructure. The piece predicts more companies with existing coding-agent infrastructure will follow this pattern. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
