What is SaaS Pegasus?

SaaS Pegasus is a boilerplate codebase designed to accelerate SaaS product development. It provides pre-built functionality for common SaaS requirements, including user authentication, team management, subscription billing, and API infrastructure. Rather than building these features from scratch, developers get a solid foundation with production-ready code they can customise and extend. The boilerplate is aimed at founders and development teams who want to move quickly from concept to launch without reinventing essential infrastructure.
