Cause of death: the autopsy

Stainless was still regenerating SDKs for existing projects (21 of 40 sampled companies had its commits since June), so the pain hadn't arrived, and Scalar already reads the Stainless config at $150 per extra target.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The scout planned to re-check its 40-company sample on 2026-11-15 to see whether Stainless stops updating existing SDKs.
