The SaaS you're renting was someone else's code, sold to you with a monthly tax. Same operations. Same modules. Bought once, owned forever, deployed to your own infrastructure. Against a subscription that starts at $49 a month and climbs with users and plans, a one-time $149 to $199 pays for itself in about four months against an entry plan, and sooner against larger ones.

The whole pricing ladder

Everything is one-time except the two optional add-ons, and the add-ons never gate what you bought. Start free, buy only the rung you need.

Rung	Price	What it is
Free cores	$0, MIT	Three open-source foundations: dashboard, business site, backend API kit. Clone and run today.
Modules	$29 to $49 once	Single operational tools (CRM, Invoicing, Booking) that bridge into any core or kit.
Starter kits	$149 to $199 once	A vertical’s full operational stack, pre-wired: the whole business in one deployment.
Pro plan	$14/mo, optional	Managed hosting, update streams, priority support. Never gates a purchased feature.
AI add-on	optional	Optional AI features layered on top. Same rule: additive, never a gate on what you own.
Custom build	from $499	Net-new modules or bespoke engineering, same code-to-own delivery.

The rule we do not break

We never gate what you bought behind a subscription.

Cancel Pro tomorrow and every module and kit you purchased keeps working, unchanged, on your own infrastructure. Pro and the AI add-on layer extras on top. They are never a toll on the code you already own. That is the whole difference between owning and renting.

How the math works

SaaS prices monthly because their cost structure is recurring infrastructure plus margin plus growth. You pay for their team, their AWS bill, and their stockholders, every month, forever. The product itself is finished engineering they built once.

LaunchKits sells you the engineering once. You self-host on Vercel (free tier), database on Supabase (free tier), email through Resend (3000/month free). Total recurring infrastructure cost for a small business: $0. The optional Pro tier ($14/mo) covers managed hosting and updates if you don't want to set up Cloudflare yourself.

The trade-off: you do a 20-minute deployment instead of clicking through a SaaS signup. Against a $59 to $200 a month tool, dropping the subscription is worth roughly $700 to $2,400 a year, before your own hosting costs.

Pricing questions

Do I actually own the code, or is this a license I can lose?+

You own it. Every kit and module is delivered to your own private GitHub repository and deploys to your own infrastructure. Once the code is in your repo it is yours to run, modify, and keep, unaffected by anything we change on our side.

If I stop paying for the optional Pro plan, do I lose what I bought?+

No. Pro ($14/mo) and the AI add-on only layer extras like managed hosting, update streams, and priority support on top. Cancel either tomorrow and every module and kit you purchased keeps working, unchanged, on your own infrastructure. We never gate a purchased feature behind a subscription.

What is your refund policy?+

Full refund on a pre-delivery cancel. After delivery, stock kits have a 30-day window and Custom Builds a 14-day window, since code is delivered immediately and cannot be un-sent once a GitHub invitation is accepted. Email gyapaganda@gmail.com to start a refund.

Can I start small with one module and buy the full kit later?+

Yes. You can start free with the open-source cores, buy individual modules ($29 to $49 once) as you need them, or buy a vertical starter kit ($149 to $199 once) for the whole pre-wired stack. Modules bridge into any core or kit, so you can grow one rung at a time.
