MakerKit

What it is

Questions from the bench

Is MakerKit a Next.js SaaS template or a boilerplate?

MakerKit is a boilerplate, also called a Next.js starter kit. Unlike templates that stop at screens, MakerKit ships the backend: authentication wired to Postgres, billing wired to a payment provider, and the account model connecting them. It is a multi-tenant SaaS boilerplate you own and extend.

Which technology stacks does MakerKit support?

MakerKit supports three data stacks on the same architecture: Supabase with Supabase Auth, Postgres, Storage, and Row Level Security; Drizzle ORM with Better Auth; or Prisma 7 with Better Auth on any Postgres. All use Next.js 16, React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS 4, and Shadcn UI. A license covers one data stack and includes the TanStack Start version of that stack plus React Router 8 on the Supabase stack.

Is MakerKit a subscription service?

No. MakerKit uses a one-time payment model. You pay once and keep access to the private repository and every future update. There is no monthly or yearly fee.

What is the difference between Pro and Teams licenses?

The code is the same in both licenses. Pro ($349) gives repository access to one developer with unlimited projects and lifetime updates. Teams ($649) gives access to up to five collaborators, a private Discord channel, and the same features. Contact them for more than five seats.
