Why CleenUI

Frontend starters ship
the lobby. Not the building.

ShipFast, Makerkit, SaaS Pegasus, Gravity — they ship a proven SaaS chassis: auth flows, team management, Stripe billing, email templates. That's genuine value. But everything between "user signed up" and "user shipped value" — domain logic, database depth, async processing, real-time communication — is still yours to build.

What frontend starters actually deliver

This is real work, and for thin products it's enough. A polished SaaS chassis in days instead of weeks.

Auth flows

OAuth, magic links, email/password, 2FA, email verification — the full login suite.

Team management

Invite-based org creation, member roles, seat management. Multi-tenant foundation.

Stripe billing

Subscription plans, checkout sessions, billing portal, webhook handler.

Email templates

Welcome, password reset, invoice, team invite — transactional email pre-wired.

Landing page

A marketing homepage scaffold. Pricing section, feature grid, CTA, hero.

Admin dashboard

User list, subscription overview, basic metrics. Enough to operate day one.

If your product is "auth + Stripe + one core feature," a frontend starter is the right call. The rest of this page is for teams whose product is more than that.

Five layers where starters stop
and you start building

Each gap is a multi-week build the first time. CleenUI ships them pre-built and in production.

01

Database depth

Starters~20–30 tablesUsers, teams, subscriptions, sessions.
CleenUI300+ Azure SQL tablesAcross 14 modules. Pre-designed, normalized, and in production.

SaaS starters ship the chassis schema. Everything else — content taxonomy, translation registries, assessment instruments, notification template history, marketplace records — is yours to design from scratch and maintain across every future migration.

02

API ownership

StartersAPI routes or serverless functionsYou write the domain logic endpoint by endpoint.
CleenUI524 pre-built ASP.NET Core 8 endpointsAcross 14 modules and 25 functional groupings. OpenAPI documented.

The API surface count of a starter is however many endpoints you've built. Server actions and API routes aren't a domain API — request validation, tenant scoping, audit logging, and rate limiting aren't pre-wired per endpoint.

03

Background processing

StartersBring your ownInngest, BullMQ, Celery, Trigger.dev — your choice, your integration.
CleenUI12-project .NET async processing solution3 Azure Functions + 2 WebJobs + 6 shared libraries. Pre-wired.

Translation queues, media safety scanning, video encoding, thumbnail generation — domain-specific async workers that most products eventually need. Starters ship the queue infrastructure choice; CleenUI ships the workers.

04

Real-time layer

StartersNot includedAdd Ably, Pusher, or Socket.io — then build the protocol.
CleenUISignalR hub — M07 MessagingConversations, presence, reactions, read receipts, media attachments.

If your product needs real-time — chat, live notifications, presence indicators, collaborative signals — you're integrating a third-party service and building the application-layer protocol on top. M07 ships the full vertical slice, end to end.

05

Domain modules

StartersAuth + teams + StripeThe SaaS chassis. What comes after that is yours.
CleenUI14 production vertical modules (M01–M14)Help center, translations, AI ops, assessments, marketplace, and more.

Every module a B2B SaaS eventually needs — help center articles, translation management, notification templates, task management, assessment instruments, vendor marketplace — is a multi-week build. CleenUI ships them. Starters give you the foundation to build them.

Which one do you actually need?

Match the project shape to the tool — not the other way around.

StarterYour team is JavaScript-first and Next.js or Django is non-negotiable
StarterBudget is under $500 and domain modules will be built in-house
StarterYour product ships one core feature on top of auth and billing
CleenUIYour team runs .NET and needs a C# API with an owned SQL database
CleenUIYou need 3 or more domain modules pre-built — help center, messaging, assessments
CleenUIThe foundation is 6–12 months of work you'd rather not repeat
