FAQ

Common questions

How should I compare SaaS boilerplates for an AI-assisted build?

Judge them on whether a coding agent can customise the repo safely: machine-readable repo memory, clear safe edit zones, setup checks, and a verification contract matter more than raw feature count when an agent is doing the work.

When is Toolbound the better choice?

Toolbound is the stronger fit when your main user is a coding agent and you want Day 0 proof of payments, email, persistence, and agent-safe customisation. Broader kits are better when you need more prebuilt application surface area.

Are these comparisons fair to the other boilerplates?

Yes. Each comparison names where the competitor is genuinely strong and where Toolbound is narrower by design. The goal is an honest fit decision, not a claim that one kit wins every case.
