01
Auth that doesn't leak trust
Magic link, OAuth, session handling, and password-reset flows built correctly — not bolted on from a template. Users notice bad auth. It's one of the first things they judge.
Web design for SaaS founders
A site that actually sells your software — not just describes it.
Auth flows, billing pages, and dashboards built for founders who know exactly what they're building but need a front-end that closes the gap between working prototype and thing-you'd-pay-for.
- What this is.
- Nerd Prescribed builds custom Next.js web properties for SaaS founders — landing pages, auth flows, Stripe billing, and full product dashboards — typically priced €3,000–€12,000+ depending on scope.
- Who it's for.
- Early-stage SaaS founders with a working product but a site that doesn't match what the product actually does. Also founders shipping the MVP who want landing page, auth, and Stripe wired in from the start.
- What it costs.
- A SaaS landing page starts at €1,800. Add auth, billing, and a user dashboard and the typical budget is €3,000–€8,000. Complex multi-user products with custom reporting or integrations run €8,000–€12,000+.
- Bottom line.
- Nerd Prescribed built Actually — a full subscription SaaS used daily by a real family. If you have something to ship, come scope it.
Features
What SaaS founders actually need
02
Stripe billing wired in, not hacked in
Subscriptions, usage-based billing, free tiers, upgrade prompts — built with Stripe's actual APIs rather than a plugin. Billing edge cases are handled at build time, not when a user emails you at 11pm.
03
A dashboard your users will actually reopen
SaaS retention lives in the dashboard. Clear data hierarchy, fast loads, and zero cognitive overhead to complete the core job. No chart libraries dropped in for the sake of it.
Pricing

Common questions
Can you build a full SaaS from scratch, including auth and billing?
Yes. Actually is a full SaaS application — magic link auth, multi-tier Stripe subscriptions (monthly, yearly, and one-time with Klarna), PDF report generation, photo uploads to Cloudflare R2, and multi-child user profiles. It is in production and used daily.
What does a SaaS landing page from Nerd Prescribed include?
At minimum: a responsive, high-converting landing page with structured data for SEO, Core Web Vitals optimised, canonical URL, OG image, and a connected quote form or pricing page. Auth, Stripe checkout, and dashboard screens are scoped separately.
Do you work with early-stage SaaS founders who are pre-launch?
Yes — most SaaS work I do is pre-launch or at early traction stage. If you have a product that works and needs a proper front-end, or you are building the MVP and want landing page, auth, and Stripe wired in from the start, that is the exact scope I work in.
How long does a SaaS build take?
A landing page alone takes 2–3 weeks. Full auth + billing + dashboard is typically 6–10 weeks depending on scope. I work on one project at a time, so you get full attention — not a shared sprint.
Can I add features after the initial build?
Yes. Most SaaS projects ship an initial scope and then iterate. You can come back for add-ons — new dashboard views, additional Stripe products, admin panels, integrations. Each add-on is scoped and priced separately.
