Services like these seem to only be able to handle small standalone scripts, rather than work in integrated codebases, which require time and dedication to the projects. How is there a market for this, when most developers capable of understanding what programs can do are also capable of writing prototype implementations of them?

The programmers might just want to save time to work on more important stuff. There are also technically-able people who can't program but might need a script to perform some mundane task (like their dog image example).
