General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score
From the README
50 complete AI SaaS products. Brand them. Sell them. Keep 100% of the revenue.
Each app is a fully working product you can launch under your own name this weekend — auth, billing, and AI all wired up.
Stripe Billing · Google OAuth · One-click Vercel deploy · MIT Licensed
Every app here is a complete, sellable SaaS product — not a demo, not a UI kit. Fork one, put your logo on it, and you have a live product that can take payments today.
You own it entirely. MIT licensed — no royalties, no revenue share. Your brand, your domain, your income.
Each template uses a credit billing model. Here's the math on a typical app:
The margin is high because you're reselling AI compute. The hard parts — billing, auth, async job handling, webhook retry, credit deduction — are already built. Your job is distribution.
