Breva 2.0 for Mac is here!

Hey Product Hunt,

I built Breva because I wanted a calmer way to reset during the workday without reaching for my phone or opening a full meditation app.

What's your go to tech stack when starting a new SaaS project?

Lately I've noticed most discussion around AI coding tools focuses on which assistant or terminal agent people use, but not much on the actual architecture decisions behind that, things like framework, hosting, database, and auth choices that affect cost and security down the line.

For context, my current default stack is Next.js on the frontend, Supabase for database and auth, Vercel for hosting, and Stripe for payments. I picked it mainly for speed of shipping and because it keeps infra costs predictable early on, but I'm not sure it's the best call for security or scaling past MVP stage.

A few things I'm curious about:

  • Do you settle on a default stack before prompting your AI agent, or does the agent end up influencing your stack choice?

  • What's been your biggest regret, cost, security, or scaling wise, with a stack you picked early on?

  • Any stack you'd actively avoid for a new SaaS in 2026?
