nlike other SaaS starter kits (ShipFast, Supastarter, etc.), AIStarterKit includes a built-in AI API usage & cost-tracking module — track spend across Claude, OpenAI, and Groq from day one. Also includes auth, a dashboard, and everything else needed to launch an AI product fast. Built with Next.js, Supabase, and Tailwind CSS.
Hey everyone! I built this after a personal lesson: I first built a standalone cost-tracking tool (Burnrate) to solve my own pain of getting blindsided by AI API costs mid-project. While building it, I discovered most solo developers don't actually have API-provider-level admin access needed for usage reporting — so I redesigned the whole approach into a self-contained logging system instead.
Once that worked, I realized this exact module was something no existing SaaS boilerplate (ShipFast, Supastarter, etc.) includes — so I packaged it into a full starter kit with auth, a dashboard, and everything else needed to launch an AI product fast.
Would love your feedback, especially from anyone who's felt the same "wait, how much did I just spend?" moment building with AI APIs.
