Launch Subscriptions & Feature Flags for SaaS Startups in Minutes

Renoodles is a developer-first platform that handles subscription and feature management for multiple SaaS applications. Instead of spending weeks building billing infrastructure, developers can integrate core functionality with just a few lines of code and focus on building great products.

The Developer Problem & Solution

Skip Weeks of Development: Most SaaS startups spend significant time building subscription management, feature flagging, and billing infrastructure before focusing on their core product.

Multi-App Management: Unlike single-app solutions, Renoodles handles subscriptions and features across multiple applications from a unified dashboard.

Code That Sells Itself: From signup to first subscription in under 10 minutes, with clean APIs and comprehensive documentation.

Core Platform Features

Subscription Management

Multi-App Support: Manage subscriptions across multiple SaaS applications from a unified dashboard, perfect for developers building multiple products.

Intelligent Billing: Advanced subscription handling with automated billing cycles, plan changes, and customer lifecycle management.

Advanced Feature Flagging

Subscription-Based Rollouts: Feature flagging system that integrates with subscription tiers, enabling features to be rolled out based on customer plans.

Real-Time Control: Instant feature toggling without requiring application deployments or restarts.

Health Monitoring & Recovery

Automated Recovery: Smart payment recovery workflows that automatically handle failed payments with customer communication.

System Reliability: Built-in monitoring with intelligent retry logic for failed subscription events and billing processes.

Revenue Analytics & Insights

Comprehensive Analytics: Advanced revenue tracking with insights into subscription performance, churn analysis, and growth metrics.

Multi-App Reporting: Consolidated analytics across all connected applications with drill-down capabilities for individual app performance.

Technical Architecture

API-First Design

Developer Experience: Clean, well-documented APIs with comprehensive SDKs for popular programming languages and frameworks.

Webhook System: Real-time webhooks for subscription events, feature flag changes, and billing notifications.

Integrations

Stripe Integration: Native Stripe Connect integration for secure, scalable payment processing with comprehensive error handling.

Mailgun Integration: Automated email delivery for notifications, billing communications, and customer lifecycle messaging.

Technology Stack & Development

Frontend (React + TypeScript)

Modern Dashboard: Built with React 18 and TypeScript, providing a responsive interface for managing multiple applications and their subscriptions.

Material UI Design: Leveraged Material UI for consistent, professional interface design while maintaining customization for developer-focused workflows.

Backend (Node.js + PostgreSQL)

Scalable API Design: Robust Node.js backend architected to handle high-volume subscription and feature flag requests across multiple client applications.

Event-Driven Architecture: Implemented event sourcing for subscription changes and feature flag modifications, ensuring reliable audit trails and system recovery.

Business Model & Design

Developer-Centric Approach

Usage-Based Pricing: Pricing scales with actual usage rather than arbitrary limits, making it accessible for startups and scalable for growing businesses.

Market Differentiation: Unlike enterprise-focused solutions, Renoodles prioritizes developer experience and rapid integration.

Brand Identity (Photoshop)

Developer-Friendly Branding: Created a modern, approachable brand identity that appeals to developers while maintaining professional credibility.

User Experience: Interface designed around actual developer workflows, minimizing context switching and maximizing productivity.

Project Significance

Renoodles demonstrates the ability to identify real developer pain points and create comprehensive solutions that reduce infrastructure complexity. The platform showcases:

  • Full-stack development expertise from database design to user interface
  • API design excellence balancing functionality with ease of use
  • Complex third-party integrations (Stripe, Mailgun) while maintaining reliability
  • Business understanding of developer workflows and SaaS market needs

This project represents the intersection of technical expertise, developer empathy, and business understanding that defines effective modern SaaS development.
