Salesforce, a major player in the enterprise sector, is embracing the trend of vibe coding—where developers use everyday language to describe their needs and AI generates the code—through its latest AI-driven developer solution.
On Wednesday, Salesforce introduced Agentforce Vibes, its new vibe coding platform. This tool empowers developers to independently create Salesforce applications and agents by automating much of the technical work. Agentforce Vibes supports the entire process, from conceptualizing an app to development and monitoring, all while integrating enterprise-level security and governance features.
A key feature of this platform is an autonomous AI coding assistant named Vibe Codey. This assistant is already integrated with a company’s Salesforce account, enabling it to leverage existing code and adhere to organizational coding standards, ensuring new applications are consistent with current products.
Dan Fernandez, Salesforce’s vice president of product for developer services, shared with TechCrunch that connecting Agentforce Vibes to a company’s Salesforce account offers organizations the advantages of vibe coding without the usual security concerns or the need to build from the ground up each time.
“Our goal is to provide a comprehensive solution,” Fernandez explained. “Instead of spending significant time configuring model context protocols, setting up development environments, or installing tools, everything is preconfigured and ready to use—including AI requests to get started. This is a key way we’re making it easier for developers to begin.”
According to Fernandez, this isn’t Salesforce’s initial venture into vibe coding, but rather the latest enhancement to its collection of AI tools for developers.
Salesforce first launched an AI-based code generation tool in 2023. At last year’s Dreamforce event, the company announced Agentforce’s general availability for developers.
Now, all these elements are being unified.
“We’re combining the strengths of our client tools and Agentforce for developers, customizing them specifically for Salesforce development,” Fernandez said. “It’s truly an end-to-end solution for enterprise-level vibe coding in agent-driven organizations.”
These new features are based on a customized version of the open-source AI coding agent, Cline’s Visual Studio Code Extension.
Fernandez noted that the company evaluated several open-source coding solutions before selecting Cline, in part because of its robust support for MCP, which allows AI models to securely interact with external tools and data.
This launch arrives at a pivotal moment for the vibe coding sector.
Numerous vibe coding startups continue to attract substantial investments at impressive valuations. For instance, Lovable, a vibe coding startup, is reportedly declining unsolicited funding offers after reaching a $1.8 billion valuation just eight months post-launch.
Another startup, Anything, recently reported achieving $2 million in annual recurring revenue within only two weeks of its debut.
Despite the excitement, the long-term viability of these platforms remains uncertain. The high demand for large language models to power these services leads to significant operational costs and tight profit margins, as TechCrunch highlighted in August.
However, these financial challenges are less significant when vibe coding is incorporated into a broader suite of products, as is the case with Salesforce’s Agentforce Vibes.
Each Salesforce organization is allotted 50 daily requests per org using OpenAI’s GPT-5 model, with any additional requests processed through a Salesforce-hosted Qwen 3.0 model. Currently, Agentforce Vibes is available at no cost to existing Salesforce users, with paid plans anticipated in the future.
