Built a saas app with Magic.dev?
We'll make it production-ready.
SaaS apps have the highest stakes for code quality — your users trust you with their data, they pay you monthly, and downtime costs you revenue. AI tools can build a SaaS prototype in hours, but the gap between prototype and production-grade SaaS is significant: subscription billing, multi-tenancy, data security, and reliability all need to be rock-solid.
SaaS App challenges in Magic.dev apps
Building a saas app with Magic.dev is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
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.
Onboarding and retention
The signup-to-value flow must be smooth. AI tools build the feature but not the experience — missing loading states, unclear error messages, and broken edge cases in onboarding flows cause immediate churn.
Scalability
Your app works with 10 users but will it work with 10,000? Database queries without pagination or indexes, in-memory data processing, and missing caching all cause performance degradation as you grow.
What we check in your Magic.dev saas app
Common Magic.dev issues we fix
Beyond saas app-specific issues, these are Magic.dev patterns we commonly fix.
Complex implementations that are difficult to maintain
Magic.dev's ability to generate large, multi-file implementations means it can produce sophisticated code that works but is hard for human engineers to understand, debug, or extend.
Security decisions made at scale without explicit review
When Magic.dev generates an entire feature spanning many files, security decisions — API authentication, data access patterns, input validation — are embedded throughout without a clear review surface.
Over-engineered solutions for straightforward requirements
Magic.dev tends toward comprehensive, extensible implementations. Simple CRUD operations may receive complex abstraction layers, generic type systems, and plugin architectures that add maintenance burden.
Dependency on Magic.dev's specific AI model for future changes
Complex generated codebases are easiest to modify by re-running Magic.dev with updated prompts. This creates dependence on continued access to their service for ongoing development.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a saas app with Magic.dev?
Magic.dev is a great starting point for a saas app. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but saas apps have specific requirements — subscription billing complexity and multi-tenant data isolation — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Magic.dev leave in saas apps?
Common issues include: complex implementations that are difficult to maintain, security decisions made at scale without explicit review, over-engineered solutions for straightforward requirements. For a saas app specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for subscription billing complexity.
How do I make my Magic.dev saas app production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Magic.dev-built saas apps, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a Magic.dev-built saas app?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger saas app projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
