In this short dialogue, a small business owner explains how they slashed their website and support costs from $500 and $1,500 per month respectively to near zero by migrating their two‑page site from Webflow to Claude Design and replacing a Fin AI/Intercom support bot with an open‑source automation stack built on Claude Code and N8N. The new site, generated with Claude’s design assistance, is described as dramatically higher in quality, and the entire system runs on a spare computer in the owner’s closet, incurring only about $2 per month in expenses. The conversation highlights the cost structures of traditional SaaS platforms, the practical steps of the migration, and the perceived benefits in both cost and user experience.
