A team of 9 people made Base44, a product for vibe-coding apps, and sold it for $80M within 6 months.

That's just an example of surfing on the incestuous hype, they created a vibe-coded tool that was bought by Wix to help vibe-code other stuff.

Is there any example of successful companies created mostly/entirely by "vibe coding" that isn't itself a company in the AI hype? I haven't seen any, all examples so far are similar to yours.

Yeah, that's like those crypto/nft "products" that just let you move crypto/nfts around.

A team of 9 created or vibe-coded a product?

Their ads are plastered on my youtube so often that I don't trust this product in the slightest. Same with "Motion".
