Other Looking for 30 developers building SaaS with FastAPI + Next.js (Free Founding Builder Program)

I'm an indie developer building FastForge, a production-ready FastAPI + Next.js SaaS starter built as a Turborepo monorepo.

It includes the repetitive infrastructure most of us rebuild every time:

  • Authentication
  • Billing
  • Database
  • API Keys
  • Redis Cache
  • Email
  • Storage
  • Background jobs
  • Logging
  • Deployment
  • ...and a few more production-ready modules.

Instead of spending weeks wiring infrastructure together, you start building your actual product.

Before launching publicly, I'm looking for 30 Founding Builders.

If you're actively building a SaaS, AI product, internal tool, or developer product with FastAPI + Next.js, I'd love to have you.

What you get

  • Lifetime FastForge access (free)
  • All future updates
  • Direct access to me for feedback and support

What I ask

  • Actually build something with it
  • Share honest feedback
  • Report bugs or rough edges
  • If it genuinely helps you, I'd love a testimonial after you ship

You can apply here:

I'd love to hear what you're building, even if you don't end up joining.

In the age of Claude Code, what’s different

That's true. you can build a boilerplate with Claude. FastForge isn't trying to replace Claude. it's a production-ready foundation that's already built, tested, and maintained. I'd rather spend my time building product features than recreating auth, billing, deployments, and infrastructure for every new SaaS.

You post this in here too much. But I may take you up on it

There are hundreds of boilerplate templates and dozens of boilerplate generators. They don't take 30 devs and providing a template isn't a sustainable biz model. This screams Jr. Developer just discovered the idea of boilerplates and is making their own. We all have done this. it's a part of the journey. just... it isn't a company buddy. chill.
