Zero to Production: Building Launchpad

We built Launchpad to prove a point: AI-assisted development can ship production software fast.

Stack: Next.js 16, Vercel, Stripe, Supabase. Architecture: 5 parallel swarm agents (speakers, venue, schedule, pricing, branding), smart fallback when OpenAI isn't configured, in-memory store when Supabase isn't. Scope: 34 pages, 11 API routes, 0 TypeScript errors.

What it proves: A single developer with the right tools can build a full SaaS in weeks, not months. The customize layer, blog, community, ROI calculator — all added in days. Vercel's deployment model ↗ and Supabase's backend ↗ make iteration fast. This is the new normal.
