Key Challenges We Handle

Multi-tenancy from day one

The biggest architectural mistake in SaaS MVPs is building single-tenant first and retrofitting multi-tenancy later. We use Supabase Row Level Security (RLS) to enforce tenant isolation at the database level from day one.

Billing edge cases

Prorations, seat upgrades mid-cycle, trial conversions, and failed payment recovery are complex. Stripe Billing handles most of this — but the webhook logic to stay in sync with your database requires careful implementation.

Activation vs acquisition

Most SaaS fails at activation, not acquisition. Define your 'aha moment' and build the onboarding to get users there in under 5 minutes. Empty states, tooltips, and a setup checklist dramatically improve week-1 retention.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to build a SaaS application?

A SaaS MVP (auth, core features, Stripe subscriptions, team management) costs $15,000–$40,000 with an agency. Simple single-feature SaaS tools can be built for $5,000–$10,000. Enterprise-grade platforms with SSO, audit logs, and compliance features cost $100,000+.

What does 'multi-tenant' mean and do I need it?

Multi-tenant means each customer's data is isolated from others in the same database. Yes, you need it from day one — retrofitting it later costs 2–3× a fresh build.

How do I handle different pricing tiers in code?

We use a combination of Stripe Products/Prices for billing and a feature flags table in the database to enforce plan limits. This lets you change what's included in each plan without a code deploy.
