I built this to survive low-budget clients, now thinking of turning it into a SaaS

Hello dear indie hackers,

I’ve been building websites since before AI could even write a “Hello World” in HTML.

Over the years, I kept running into the same problem: clients with small budgets who still needed more than just a static landing page. They wanted simple blogs, lightweight CMS features, product listings, nothing too complex, but enough to manage content without calling a developer every time.

The existing tools were either too heavy, too expensive, or too time-consuming to set up for these kinds of projects.

So I built my own solution.

At first, it was just a personal tool to speed up my workflow and make low-budget projects actually worth taking. But over time, it turned into something more powerful: a way to spin up clean, fast websites with built-in, minimal CMS functionality, without the usual overhead.

Now I’m considering turning it into a SaaS.

Before going all in, I’d love to know:

Would this actually be useful to other developers or freelancers working with similar clients?

If you’ve ever had to choose between overengineering a project or turning it down because of budget constraints, this might resonate with you.

Happy to share more and get your feedback 🙌
