SaaStanak Rijeka: Where is the line between LLMs and SaaS in highly regulated industries?
📣 SaaStanak Rijeka #1: LLMs, SaaS, and regulated industries
This time, we’re partnering with Parra to open up a conversation that sits right between AI, SaaS, and highly regulated industries.
Where is the line between LLMs and SaaS when the rules are not optional?
In accounting, law, medicine, and other highly regulated industries, the product cannot “kind of” get it right. The logic is prescribed. The process is controlled. The output needs to be explainable.
So what happens when you bring LLMs into that world?
This time, we’re talking about the uncomfortable middle ground between AI products and traditional SaaS. When does an LLM stop being the brain of the product and become the interface? When does AI need to follow deterministic rules instead of generating answers? And what does that mean for builders trying to ship AI products in industries where mistakes are expensive?
Joining us are speakers building and working around AI, SaaS, and regulated environments from different angles:
Aleksandra Ignatoski, Parra & Aestus
Luka Jakopović, Mikai
Sven Pal, Datum
We’ll discuss:
AI vs rules-based software - where LLMs make sense, and where explicit logic needs to take over.
Regulated industries - why accounting, law, and medicine cannot treat AI like a generic chatbot layer.
Product design -how to build AI products when accuracy, traceability, and control matter more than magic.
The SaaS question - if the logic is deterministic and the LLM is the interface, are we still building AI software, or just SaaS with a better UX?
