Built a SaaS that turns app inputs into reviewable infrastructure bundles

I’ve been building a small SaaS called Dockit.

The core idea is to make infrastructure setup less repetitive for small teams. Instead of starting from scratch every time, you enter a few app details and Dockit generates a reviewable infrastructure bundle you can inspect, edit, save, and export.

Right now the product has two lanes:

Free:

preset-based starter flow
fast bundle generation
simple, reviewable output like README, .env.example, and docker-compose
focused on helping people get a stack into view quickly

Pro:

more detailed configuration flow
delivery-aware output
policy checks before export
editable result workspace
support for more advanced deployment targets and project reuse

One thing I’ve been trying to avoid is making it feel like a black box. I don’t want it to be “AI generated this, good luck.” The goal is to produce something teams can actually review and work with.

I recently changed the generator flow so free users mostly see a simpler preset-first experience, while Pro users get a more guided step-by-step configuration flow. That felt like a better balance between activation and monetization.

I’m still figuring out the right boundary between:

“starter infra generator”
and
“serious delivery handoff tool”

The next features I’m thinking about are:

environment-specific generation for dev/staging/prod
stronger diff/regeneration flow
deeper policy/security checks
auto-generated ops docs

Curious how people here would position something like this:
Would you keep it lightweight and starter-focused, or push it harder toward deployment and operations?

If anyone wants to see what I mean, here’s Dockit: https://dockit.at

    Moving from "black box" AI generation to "reviewable infrastructure" is exactly what senior devs want, bhwoo. Most AI tools ignore the handoff logic, but providing a workspace with policy checks and environment-aware configs turns a "starter script" into a legitimate ops asset.
    I’m currently running a project in Tokyo (Tokyo Lore) that highlights high-utility infrastructure tools and the builders behind them. Since you're navigating the boundary between "starter generator" and "delivery handoff," entering your project could be the perfect way to showcase your logic while your odds are at their absolute peak.
