Founding infrastructure
LaunchFast
Ship your first product on a codebase worth keeping.
The failure mode no one talks about
You can spin up a full-stack app with AI in a weekend. Auth, payments, database, deployment — it writes everything.
Three months later, you are rewriting it.
Not because the code was bad. Because the decisions were. Wrong database engine. Wrong auth pattern. Wrong deployment model. Each choice became load-bearing before you noticed.
By 10,000 lines, the cost of correction exceeds the cost of starting over.
The faster you ship, the faster you lock in mistakes.
Why speed is the wrong constraint
- 01AI accelerates code production.
- 02Faster code compresses decision time.
- 03Compressed decision time increases errors in foundational choices.
- 04Foundational errors become irreversible quickly.
- 05Therefore: the constraint is not speed. It is correctness.
LaunchFast gives you a correct founding state — and AI guardrails that keep development correct as you build.
What LaunchFast refuses to optimize for
- Maximum flexibility
- Feature breadth
- Configurability
- Speculative scale
- Optionality without risk reduction
If these constraints feel limiting, LaunchFast is not for you — and that is fine.
Do not buy if
Do not proceed if any of the following apply:
- I want to choose my own database
- I prefer to build authentication myself
- I want a plugin or extension system
- I want to override the foundational technology choices (database, auth, deployment)
If you are unsure whether you want these constraints, do not proceed.
Inspect before buying
The documentation is public. The source code is open-source. Inspect both before spending a cent. If you disagree with the approach, you have saved yourself €199.
Others have trusted the foundation
As a seasoned developer, I've spent countless hours wrestling with infrastructure, best practices, and endless decisions. It's exhausting. With LaunchFast, I had a production-ready app and staging environment set up in 10 minutes. Unreal. Where has this been all my life?
LaunchFast is a super valuable tool! It saved me hours of setup time, letting me focus on the actual development instead of infrastructure headaches.
What you receive
The template (free and open-source)
- A TypeScript Remix codebase with authentication, payments, and email — integrated and tested
- SQLite deployment — starts single-region, scales globally with Primary-Replica when you need it
- Documentation that explains every decision, including what was deliberately left out
The CLI (what €199 buys)
- Correct initialization — the template is inert until the CLI sets it up as a working founding state
- AI guardrails that constrain AI assistants to preserve your architecture — not just at setup, but on every change
The code is free. Correct initialization and ongoing architectural protection is what you are paying for.

The alternative is weeks of research and architectural decisions that may still be wrong. The cost when they are wrong: a rewrite.

One-time payment
After purchase, you can authenticate with the LaunchFast CLI — it sets up the open-source template correctly and installs the AI guardrails that keep your codebase correct as you build.
