I'm launching a Boilerplate - ShipSaaS

🚀 Introducing ShipSaaS.now — The AI-powered Boilerplate to Build Your SaaS Fast… and Right

🧩 The Reality

Here’s the truth: 90% of developers who start building a SaaS will never finish it.

Not because they lack ideas.
But because they waste weeks rebuilding the same stuff over and over again:

  • Authentication
  • Stripe setup
  • Roles & permissions
  • Transactional emails
  • Database schemas, ORM, migrations…

And for the few lucky ones who actually manage to launch something with AI’s help…
it usually ends up as a messy, unmaintainable, insecure project.

I’ve seen it dozens of times.
And I’ve lived through it myself — even after 20 years of coding. ShipSaaS Boilerplate

💡 The Hidden Problem

Today, with Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, or Vercel’s v0, you can generate code at lightning speed.
But what AI still can’t do is design a robust, scalable, and secure architecture.

👉 You can ask your AI “build me a SaaS with subscriptions and a dashboard”…
and it will generate something that looks functional.

But you’ll quickly realize:

  • there’s no clear layer separation (the codebase becomes chaos fast),
  • no structural consistency,
  • no real security standards,
  • and after a week, it’s almost impossible to maintain.

In short: you save time upfront, but you pay the price later.


⚙️ Why I Built ShipSaaS.now

I spent the past few months building the boilerplate I always wished I had
a complete, scalable, and AI-ready foundation designed for AI-native solo founders who want to ship fast but clean.

I wanted a base that could work for:

  • a freelancer delivering SaaS projects quickly,
  • a solo dev launching their first profitable product,
  • or a small startup team that needs a solid foundation without wasting 3 months on setup.

In 2025, you no longer have to choose between speed and quality.
With the right tools, you can have both.

AI helps you move faster.
A good boilerplate helps you move smarter.

Together, they’re the difference between:

a side project that dies in 3 weeks
and a SaaS that actually generates revenue.
