Why I built this.

I did what everyone seemed to be doing, firing up an AI tool and started building. But none of my projects got past HTML before I gave up.

I started doom scrolling social media, watching people ship their own apps. Somehow the algorithm kept showing me technical things I had no idea about. Got curious, I started learning but the more I learned, the more overwhelmed I got.

It took me weeks to piece it together. Watching videos, reading posts, cross-checking what AI told me. A lot of it turned out to be wrong, outdated, or just missing entirely. And even after all that, I still missed things.

So I built this. Because I wished it existed when I was starting out, before the weeks of confusion, not after.

You don't know what you don't know.

Is my AI actually building this right?

It sounds confident. But it always does.

Did I miss something critical?

No milestone. No checklist. No senior dev.

Am I actually ready to ship?

Or am I just hoping nothing breaks.

The checklist is the answer to that voice.

A single markdown file. 13 sections, 129 items covering every layer of your web SaaS before you ship.
Anyone building their first web SaaS with AI tools. No coding experience needed.
This checklist is built for web SaaS only. It won't help you if you're building a mobile app, desktop app, or looking for post-launch advice like marketing or growth.
No. The checklist covers universal pre-launch requirements that apply to any web SaaS regardless of what it does — whether you're building an AI tool, a booking app, a SaaS dashboard, or anything else.
Lovable — Project Settings → Knowledge
Bolt.new — Gear icon → All project settings → Knowledge
Base44 — Settings icon in chat → AI Controls → Custom Instructions
v0 — Settings → General → Custom instructions
Cursor — .cursorrules file in project root
Windsurf — .windsurfrules file in project root
Claude Code — CLAUDE.md file in project root
Codex CLI / VS Code — AGENTS.md file in project root
Yes. It works with any AI tool that accepts a context file or custom instructions. Lovable, Bolt, Base44, v0, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, Codex, and more.
Still useful. Most pre-launch issues come from things people skipped early on. Run through it now and you'll catch what's missing before real users do.
All sales are final and we don't usually offer refunds. If something went genuinely wrong, email hello@shipblueprint.com within 7 days and I'll look into it.
