Are no-code tools actually slowing down startups?

I've noticed a concerning trend: while no-code tools promise quick launches for startups, many founders end up rebuilding their entire product from scratch later. Meanwhile, established platforms for startups like Zapier are doubling their prices, pushing teams to reconsider their stack entirely.

What I'm seeing in the market:

• Bubble/FlutterFlow promise "build Uber in weeks"
• Make. com offers Zapier various automation features, but they are expensive, which made me look for alternatives.
• AI tools like Cursor + Claude claim to replace coding skills
• Traditional coding still takes 6+ months to learn basics
• Successful startups often rebuild their no-code MVPs

Here's what makes me wonder: are we choosing speed over sustainability?
