Oh, *Great*. Salesforce Did Something Again.
Right, so the clowns over at Salesforce – yes, those Salesforce – have unleashed another “revolutionary” product called AgentForce Vibes. Apparently, regular coding is just too…hard for enterprise users? So now they’re letting people build shit with “vibe checks” and pre-built components. Basically, it’s drag-and-drop bullshit masquerading as development. They claim it speeds things up for customer service bots and internal tools. Translation: It lets managers who wouldn’t know a semicolon from their elbow pretend they can create software.
It uses this “Vibe Studio” thing where you describe what you want, and the AI (surprise!) spits out something resembling code. They’re pushing it as low-code/no-code on steroids, integrated with Data Cloud and Einstein 1 Platform. Meaning more lock-in to their ecosystem, naturally. And of course, they’ve got a whole marketing spiel about “empowering” everyone. It’s all just fluff.
They’re also trying to sell this as a way to avoid shadow IT – because apparently letting people actually *learn* how to code is too much effort? Expect buggy messes, vendor lock-in, and a whole lot of frustrated developers cleaning up the inevitable disasters. Honestly, it’s just another attempt to squeeze more money out of customers by selling them a simplified (and inferior) solution.
And because everything Salesforce does needs a price tag, they’re charging extra for this “Vibes” functionality. Because why wouldn’t they? It’s the circle of life at Salesforce: create a problem, sell an overpriced “solution”.

Look, I once had to debug a script written by a marketing intern who thought commenting was optional. It involved 300 lines of nested IF statements and zero error handling. Zero. This AgentForce Vibes thing feels like that, but scaled up to enterprise levels. Prepare for pain.
