It would make absolute sense for Replit, Cursor, Windsurf to develop a “Sponsored Missions” program where businesses will fund/reward builders who ship apps curated for a specific vertical or solving a specific problem. Technically, its a combination of Hackathons + Bounties + Y Combinator.

Imagine for example a “Spotify program” rewarding builders who ship apps about fan engagement, new multimedia experiences, IP remix etc The looser the specs, the better.

It’s a type of a perfect flywheel where code-gen platforms have a new revenue stream, builders can monetize their ideas fast and businesses can outsource innovation.
