    SaaS MVP in 90 Days: Leveraging Next.js & AWS Amplify

    Why Speed Rules the SaaS Arena in 2025

    The U.S. SaaS market is racing toward an estimated $908 billion by 2030, yet founders still face a brutal 92 percent three-year failure rate. Investors reward the teams that test, iterate, and monetize first, so shaving even a single sprint off the timeline compounds valuation. Gartner now predicts that 70 percent of new enterprise apps will be built on low- or no-code tooling by the end of 2025, underscoring a collective obsession with velocity rather than vanity features. 

    The Next.js + Amplify Stack: Built for Rapid Experimentation

    Next.js 15 arrives with React 19 support, production-ready Turbopack, and smarter caching that invalidate only the chunks you touch—meaning page loads stay hot while your CI/CD stays cool.    AWS Amplify answers on the backend: Gen 2’s code-first TypeScript model provisions data, auth, and storage in minutes and spins up per-developer sandboxes so experiments never collide.    February 2025 hosting updates add password-protected preview URLs for every pull request and first-class SSR deployment for Next.js, Nuxt, and Astro—no glue scripts, no guesswork.    Together, the stack lets a two-pizza team ship features at enterprise-grade scale while paying hobby-tier prices until traction hits.

    A Ninety-Day Playbook from Idea to Paying Customer

    Day 0–10: We translate the founder’s value hypothesis into user stories and data models directly in TypeScript. Amplify’s scaffolds spin up GraphQL APIs, S3 object stores, and Cognito user pools in a single commit, so QA can click through a live URL before design files finish exporting.

    Day 11–45: Next.js routes go live behind feature flags; Turbopack’s instant HMR keeps feedback loops under five seconds, while Amplify sandboxes let each engineer iterate on isolated backends. Stripe billing, AWS SES email, and OpenSearch analytics plug in via managed connectors—no ops tickets required.

    Day 46–75: Partial pre-rendering shifts critical paths to the edge; Lighthouse scores breach the coveted 95 mark without a CDN contract. SOC 2 reports begin with Amplify’s AWS-native logging, and automated Cypress suites run against every preview URL, catching regressions long before demo day.

    Day 76–90: Growth metrics wire to Amplitude and HubSpot; usage-based pricing toggles from demo to live with a single env var. By the final Friday, the deck screens record real customer MRR, not figma mockups. Founders walk into seed meetings with usage graphs that move.

    Partnering with Vadimages: US-Grade Code, Best Velocity

    Vadimages merges California-level product thinking with Eastern-European throughput. Our engineers have carried Fortune 500 workloads past PCI-DSS and HIPAA audits, yet still thrill at 3 a.m. Slack pings from scrappy founders. Every 90-day MVP sprint comes with fixed-price guardrails, weekly Loom walkthroughs, and a shared Amplify dashboard so you can literally watch new users sign up during stand-up. When the moment arrives to scale beyond MVP, our same crew hardens the stack—extending Cognito into SSO, swapping RDS into Aurora Serverless, and refactoring App Router pages into micro-frontends that keep cold-start times under 200 ms.
