Q: What exactly do I get?

A complete monorepo: marketing site, user dashboard with AI generation and billing, admin dashboard, Hono API, database schema and migrations, Stripe and Resend integrations — all typed end to end.

Q: How do AI credits work?

Every generation is metered by real token usage against per-model rates. Subscriptions grant monthly credits; credit packs are one-time top-ups that never expire. Every movement is recorded in an auditable ledger.

Q: Can I swap the AI provider?

Yes. Generation goes through the Vercel AI SDK, so switching from Claude to another provider is a one-line model change plus pricing entry.

Q: Do I need Cloudflare?

The stack is built for Cloudflare Workers and R2, with Neon for Postgres. Hono and TanStack Start are portable if you ever need to move.

Q: Is this a subscription?

Plans cover hosted services and AI credits. The products you buy — courses and templates — are one-time purchases you keep forever.

RayStarter is the production-ready foundation for AI SaaS — auth, payments, subscriptions, metered credits, AI generation, content, and a full admin. Skip three months of plumbing and ship what makes your product different.

Shipped with RayStarter

“We replaced two months of infrastructure work with a weekend. The credit ledger alone was worth it — billing disputes just stopped.”

“The admin dashboard is the part nobody tells you you'll need. RayStarter shipped it before we knew to ask.”

“Edge-native from day one. Our TTFB dropped under 100ms globally without touching a single config.”
