Combined ranking

  1. 1
    MakerKit14 pts
    GPT #1Claude #1Gemini #2

    Best production-grade foundation: Next.js 16, strict TypeScript, Supabase/Drizzle/Prisma options, multi-tenancy, RBAC, Stripe billing, admin, Playwright tests, strong docs, lifetime updates, and AI-agent rules/MCP support

    To stay #1 Add a broader done-for-you marketplace of polished vertical templates so teams start closer to a finished SaaS

  2. 2
    ShipFast12 pts
    GPT #3Claude #2Gemini #1

    Offers unmatched speed for solo founders with ready-made components, direct Stripe integration, and a massive community to get an MVP deployed in under 48 hours.

    To rank higher Restructure its monolithic, flat codebase to prevent technical debt as applications scale beyond a simple launch.

  3. 3
    supastarter19 pts
    GPT #2Claude #4Gemini #3

    Excellent modern monorepo, strong Next.js/Nuxt/TanStack coverage, Better Auth, Prisma/Drizzle, payments, i18n, notifications, docs/marketing apps, and serious AI-coding-agent ergonomics

    To rank higher Prove more long-term production maturity and enterprise-grade upgrade/support depth

  4. 4
    SaaS Pegasus17 pts
    GPT #4Claude #3Gemini #4

    The definitive Django boilerplate — teams, billing, async jobs, admin, AI/LLM starter flows, and per-project configurability (choose your CSS framework, frontend, DB), with a decade-credible maintainer who actually supports customers

    To rank higher The Python/Django ceiling on hype — a first-class React/Next frontend story (beyond the current HTMX/React options) would pull in the modern-JS majority

  5. 5
    Jumpstart Pronew1 pts
    GPT #5Claude Gemini

    Strongest Rails commercial starter, with payments across Stripe/Paddle/Braintree/PayPal, multitenancy, authentication, Hotwire/Turbo, API support, notifications, staging, i18n, and current 2026 updates

    To rank higher Add first-class AI-agent workflows and more contemporary product UI defaults

  6. 6
    Larafast1 pts
    GPT Claude Gemini #5

    Integrates Laravel's robust native ecosystem with modern JavaScript frameworks via Inertia.js, allowing PHP developers to build and launch rapidly.

    To rank higher Include pre-configured, structured AI integration templates to cater to the growing demand for AI-driven SaaS features.

  7. 7
    Open SaaS21 pts
    GPT Claude #5Gemini

    The best free, open-source option — full-stack React/Node with auth, Stripe, AI examples, email, and deployment baked in; zero cost makes it the rational default for validating an idea before paying for anything

    To rank higher It rides on the Wasp framework, which is a niche dependency and a lock-in risk — a framework-free vanilla Next/Node edition would make it a top-3 pick
