Project Overview

The engagement

A repeatable MVP blueprint — auth, billing, teams, admin, feature flags and analytics — so founders can validate their real product idea instead of rebuilding the plumbing.

Client Challenge

Where they were stuck

  • Founders burn months on undifferentiated boilerplate.
  • Early users are lost to buggy sign-up and billing flows.
  • No shared vocabulary between design, product and engineering.
Our Solution

What we built

  • Battle-tested SaaS starter with the boring 80% already done.
  • Design system tuned for admin-heavy products.
  • Stripe billing with trials, seats and metered plans.
  • Product analytics wired from day one.
