Problem

What the team is trying to solve

A founder has a paid product idea and needs a first version they can charge for. Not a prototype. A working app with auth, billing, onboarding, and a dashboard, ready to take real customers.

Product shape

What we would actually build

A focused subscription SaaS with one or two core jobs. Auth, billing, onboarding flow, the main product screen, an admin view, and analytics events. Everything else explicitly out of scope for v1.

Target users

Founders and small teams launching a paid SaaS for the first time.

Core features

The build, broken down

  • Email and social auth
  • Onboarding flow with sane defaults

  • Account settings and team invites
  • Analytics events from day one
  • Launch page that converts
