| Solution | Monthly Cost | Annual Cost | Savings |
|----------|-------------|-------------|---------|
| **Recommended Stack** | $190-245 | $2,280-2,940 | Baseline |
| Clerk | $720-745 | $8,640-8,940 | -$6,360/year |

4. **Framework Agnostic**
- Works with React, Vue, Svelte, Astro
- Backend agnostic (NestJS, Express, Hono)
- Perfect for monorepos
### PostgreSQL RLS Insights
1. **Defense in Depth**
- Even if application code has bugs, database enforces isolation
- Policies apply at database level
- Cannot be bypassed by application
2. **Performance**
- Minimal overhead with proper indexing
- tenant_id indexes are critical
- Composite indexes for query patterns
3. **Testing is Critical**
- Must test all access patterns
- Integration tests for each policy
- Verify cross-tenant isolation
### Credit System Best Practices
1. **Double-Entry Ledger**
- Every transaction creates debit + credit entries
- Mathematical proof of accuracy
- Complete audit trail
2. **Idempotency**
- Prevents duplicate charges
- Safe to retry failed requests
- Industry standard pattern
3. **DECIMAL for Money**
- Never use FLOAT for monetary values
- DECIMAL ensures precision
- No rounding errors

## ❓ Questions for Team
### Product Questions
1. **Credit Pricing**
- What should credit packages cost?
- Suggested: 100 credits for $9.99, 500 for $39.99, etc.
2. **Credit Expiration**
- Should credits expire? If so, after how long?
- Recommendation: 90 days for purchased, no expiration for bonus
3. **Subscription Model**
- Offer monthly subscriptions or pay-as-you-go only?
- Recommendation: Start with pay-as-you-go, add subscriptions later
4. **OAuth Providers**
- Which social login providers are required?
- Recommendation: Google, GitHub, Apple (for iOS)
### Technical Questions
5. **Multi-Tenancy Priority**
- Are organizations/teams a priority feature?
- Better Auth supports this, but adds complexity
6. **Compliance Requirements**
- Any specific compliance needs? (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2)
