Building a saas app with MySQL? Let us review it.
Expert code review for saas apps built with MySQL. We fix MySQL-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common MySQL issues we find
Real problems from MySQL codebases we've reviewed.
SQL injection vulnerabilities
String concatenation used to build queries instead of parameterized statements, allowing attackers to read, modify, or delete data.
Missing database indexes
Tables without indexes on columns used in WHERE, JOIN, and ORDER BY clauses, causing full table scans as data grows.
No connection pooling
Opening a new database connection per request instead of using a connection pool, exhausting MySQL's max_connections limit under load.
Credentials in source code
Database host, username, and password hardcoded in application files or committed to version control.
SaaS App challenges to solve
Key saas app concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Subscription billing complexity
AI tools generate basic Stripe checkout but miss webhook handling, failed payment recovery, plan upgrades/downgrades, proration, and subscription lifecycle management. Your billing needs to be bulletproof — incorrect charges destroy trust instantly.
Multi-tenant data isolation
Every user's data must be completely isolated. AI-generated code often stores data without proper user scoping, meaning one customer could potentially see another's data. This is a deal-breaker for any business customer.
Authentication and authorization
SaaS needs more than login/signup. You need team management, role-based access control, API key management, SSO for enterprise customers, and secure session handling. AI tools handle basic auth but rarely implement authorization properly.
Uptime and reliability
Paying customers expect your app to work. You need error tracking, monitoring, graceful degradation, database backups, and an incident response plan. AI-generated apps crash ungracefully and have no observability.
What we check
Key areas we review for MySQL saas app projects.
Stripe integration — webhooks, subscription lifecycle, failed payment handling
Data isolation — can one user access another's data?
Authentication flows — signup, login, password reset, session management
Authorization — role-based access, team permissions
Not sure if your app passes? Our code audit ($19) checks all of these and more.
