Architecture Blueprint
Before you build, get the blueprint right.
A full technical plan for your startup: tech stack, system design, database schema, infrastructure, and cost projection. Delivered in 5-10 days, from $1,000.
Free 30-min call to understand your requirements first.
Why a blueprint first
The most expensive mistake founders make is choosing the wrong architecture at the start.
Wrong database
Migration costs 3-6 months at Series A when your data model doesn't scale.
Premature microservices
Complexity before product-market fit kills velocity. 3 engineers managing 12 services.
Build instead of buy
Auth, payments, email — rebuilt from scratch when proven services exist. 2 months gone.
Deliverables
What you get
System architecture diagram
Frontend, backend, infrastructure, integrations — all mapped. Visual overview your team can build from.
Tech stack recommendation
Not just "use React." A reasoned recommendation with trade-offs explained. Why this stack for your team, your stage, your scale target.
Database schema design
Core entities, relationships, and indexing strategy. Enough to start building — not a full ORM migration.
API design (REST vs GraphQL)
Decision framework for your specific use case, with the recommended approach outlined.
Infrastructure plan
Hosting, CI/CD, monitoring, and environment strategy. What to set up day one vs. what to defer.
Cost projection
Estimated monthly hosting, tooling, and infrastructure costs at 3 stages: MVP launch, 1K users, 10K users.
Build vs buy analysis
For key components: auth, payments, email, storage, AI — should you build it or use an existing service?
Timeline estimate
Realistic estimate for MVP build with your team size. Including what to cut to ship faster.
60-min walkthrough
Live or recorded 60-min session walking through every decision. Recorded for your team.
