The Friction

AI can build UI fast. The stack decisions still kill projects.

You can ship UI in minutes. Then reality shows up: auth edge cases, Stripe webhooks, RLS policies, email deliverability, deployment quirks β€” and your momentum dies.

πŸ”§

Integration Hell

Stripe webhooks + Supabase RLS + email + AI streaming. Each one is β€œsimple” until they touch each other. That's the 2am debugging tax.

🧠

Mental Overhead

β€œDid I configure the webhook right? Is RLS correct? Why is email failing?” Every new SaaS becomes the same checklist and the same doubt.

Slow to Revenue

You can build fast. Getting to the first paying customer is where the yak shaving starts. Setup steals the weekend you were going to ship.

Perfect for

You build with AI. Now ship for money.

Ghoststack is for builders who want to be the person who ships. Not the person who keeps restarting.

Shipping your first paid SaaS?

You can build screens with AI. The hard part is making it real: sign-in, saving data, charging, emailing, deploying. Ghoststack gives you the boring-but-decisive parts already solved.

  • βœ“ A proven stack (no guessing, no rewrites)
  • βœ“ Step-by-step docs from zero β†’ deployed
  • βœ“ Copy-paste prompts for Cursor / Claude Code
  • βœ“ No β€œwhich auth library?” googling
  • βœ“ Build a sellable MVP in days, not weeks

Serial shipper?

You know the drill: the first weekend disappears into config, glue code, and integration edge cases. Ghoststack is the β€œCTO judgment” you wish you could copy-paste.

  • βœ“ Clean, minimal code (AI-friendly, human-friendly)
  • βœ“ Webhook + RLS gotchas pre-handled
  • βœ“ MCP servers for direct service control
  • βœ“ Production-shaped patterns, not demo ware
Step-by-step docs that keep you shipping
No vague checklists. Every guide is concrete and includes copy-paste prompts. Setup β†’ build β†’ deploy without context switching.

The Multiplier

A proven stack with CTO judgment built in

The wiring is done. The defaults are sane. You just ship your features.

Battle-tested integrations

Stripe webhooks, Supabase RLS, email, AI streaming β€” wired together and documented like a real product.

Low-effort to extend

Minimal code. No bloat. No magic. Your AI tool stays accurate because the project stays readable.

AI-native by design

CLAUDE.md, MCP templates, prompts. You spend less time explaining and more time shipping.

Built to get paid

Auth, checkout, customer portal, emails β€” the parts required to charge money are already there.

The Difference

Your next project, two ways

The setup grind vs. straight to building. Same idea, different starting points.

Starting from scratch
Set up Supabase auth...
Wire Stripe webhooks...
Debug RLS policies...
Configure email...
"Why isn't this working?"
… 40+ hours later …

Days of setup before you build your actual product.

With Ghoststack
Clone repo, add API keys
Auth + DB β€” working
Stripe checkout + webhooks β€” working
Email β€” working
AI streaming β€” working
Build the thing customers pay for

Skip to the part where you make money.

AI-native by design

Your AI stays accurate because the code stays clean

Ghoststack is structured for local understanding: explicit flows, minimal indirection, and clear β€œsafe to edit” zones. That's why Cursor/Claude don't hallucinate their way into a mess.

Curated AI Rules

CLAUDE.md gives your AI the map: what to change, what to avoid, and how the stack fits together. Works out of the box with both Cursor and Claude Code.

Edit app/page.tsx freely
proxy.ts is sensitive

MCP Server Templates

Pre-configured MCP servers for Supabase, Stripe, and Render. Add keys and your AI tool can manage real services β€” without you tabbing through dashboards.

supabase: manage DB
stripe: create products
render: deploy & logs

Copy-Paste Prompts

Battle-tested prompts for common tasks: build UI, add features, debug issues β€” without the β€œAI wrote a whole new app” problem.

FAQ

Common questions

But I need components to move fast?

That's what AI coding tools are for. Ghoststack uses DaisyUI and gives you prompts like: β€œCreate a pricing section with 3 tiers using DaisyUI.” You get custom UI in seconds, without inheriting a component zoo you'll spend days undoing.

Why not just start with create-next-app?

You can β€” if you want to spend your best energy on plumbing. Getting Stripe webhooks + Supabase RLS + email + AI streaming working together cleanly is where momentum dies. Ghoststack gives you a vetted stack where the hard decisions are already made.

Is this just documentation?

No. You get the full working codebase plus step-by-step docs and AI context (rules, prompts, MCP templates) so you can extend it fast without breaking the core.

Will I outgrow it?

It's minimal and production-shaped. You build on top of it instead of fighting framework magic. When you get traction, you won't need a rewrite β€” just more features.

What else do I need? What are the costs?

Cursor Pro ($20/mo) helps, but you can also use Claude Code or any AI tool. Supabase, Stripe, Resend, OpenRouter, and Render all have free tiers that are fine for launch and validation. You typically start at ~$20/mo or less, and only pay more when you scale.

Do I need to know how to code?

Basic familiarity helps. If you can describe what you want and follow a guide, you can ship. The docs walk you through each step and include copy-paste prompts.

Can I use different tools or host somewhere else?

Yes. It's standard Next.js code you own. Swap providers, host elsewhere, add tools β€” nothing locks you in. The included stack is simply the fastest path to shipping a paid MVP.

Does it work with both Cursor and Claude Code?

Yes. CLAUDE.md is read by both Cursor and Claude Code out of the box. Same codebase context and safe-to-edit zones, no extra setup.
