AI SaaS Dashboard
An AI product with auth, billing, streaming chat, and a dashboard.
Build a real AI SaaS end-to-end: users sign up, pay for a plan, talk to a streaming AI assistant, and see usage analytics. The architecture is identical to what production AI startups ship.
What you'll build
- Sign up / sign in with email and OAuth
- Subscription billing with webhook-driven plan upgrades
- Streaming AI chat with cancellation
- Per-user usage metering & quotas
- Admin dashboard with charts
- Per-feature feature flags
What you'll learn
- Stand up a payments + auth flow that actually works
- Stream LLM responses without UI glitches
- Meter and rate-limit a paid AI feature
- Wire webhooks safely with idempotency
Key flows
The end-to-end paths your data takes through the system.
Sign-up → first message
What happens from landing page to a successful AI response.
AI request lifecycle
How a single message flows through the stack.
Build steps
A step-by-step path. Each milestone leaves you with a working slice.
- 1
Scaffold the app shell
Routes, layout, auth provider stub, basic UI primitives. No real logic yet — just the skeleton.
- 2
Add authentication
Email + OAuth sign-in, session handling, protected routes. End the step with a working /dashboard for signed-in users.
- 3
Wire payments
Checkout flow, webhook endpoint, plan-state in the user record. Idempotent on retries.
- 4
Build the streaming chat
Server endpoint that streams tokens, client that renders progressively, cancellation on unmount.
- 5
Add usage metering & quotas
Count tokens per request, persist per user, enforce plan limits in the request handler.
- 6
Ship the dashboard
Charts for usage, billing portal entry point, plan management, and account settings.
