Starbucks spends around $400 million a year on software, so even small savings matter at that scale. 

The company has already started replacing some Microsoft and IBM tools with its own internally built platforms, and at least one of those was developed with AI‑assisted coding. Starbucks expects about $10 million in software savings this fiscal year and has even tied AI adoption to employee bonuses. 

The bigger shift here is what it signals: as AI makes software easier to build, more large companies may decide to create tools tailored to their own operations instead of paying ongoing licensing fees for generic solutions.
