Bridging the gap between strategy, marketing and AI, helping businesses evolve with intelligence, clarity and control.
You've had the brilliant idea. You've started building on Bolt.new, Lovable, Replit, or even in Cursor. But now you're stuck with bugs, deployment issues, and features that just won't work. Sound familiar?
This is where most "vibe coders" hit the wall. The excitement fades when reality kicks in: professional development requires experience, not just enthusiasm. Before diving into SaaS development, it's worth getting your AI strategy right from the start.
At Thnk Menai, we specialise in taking your SaaS vision from stuck to live! With 30 years of software development experience, we understand both the technical challenges and the business realities of building successful software.
Micro-SaaS stands for "small, focused Software-as-a-Service." These are powerful tools designed to solve specific problems, either for your own team or as products you can sell to others.
Think of them as the Swiss Army knife of business software: compact, focused, and incredibly effective at what they do.
Started something on Bolt.new, Lovable, Replit, or Cursor but can't get it across the finish line? You're not alone. Most founders hit the same wall: bugs they can't fix, deployment nightmares, and features that seemed simple but turned complex.
• Database integration and data persistence issues
• Authentication and user management systems
• Payment processing and subscription billing
• Deployment and hosting configuration
• Performance optimisation and scaling
• Bug fixing and code refinement
Whether you're starting from scratch or rescuing an existing project, we follow a proven methodology that turns ideas into profitable software.
We evaluate your current project (if any), understand your market, and define exactly what needs to be built or fixed.
Clean, efficient code with proper architecture. We build for scale, security, and maintainability from day one.
Rigorous testing, seamless deployment, and ongoing support to ensure your SaaS actually works in the real world.
We don't just use the latest frameworks, we choose technologies that have proven themselves in production environments. Your SaaS needs to work reliably, scale efficiently, and be maintainable for years to come.
From MVP to market leader, we build SaaS applications that grow with your business and actually solve real problems for real users. Once your SaaS is live, you'll need a professional web presence and effective AI-powered marketing to reach your target customers.
Transparent pricing designed for startups and growing businesses. Whether you're rescuing an existing project or starting fresh, we have packages that deliver real value.
Perfect for fixing and finishing projects started on platforms like Bolt.new, Lovable, or Replit. Typically from £995 for bug fixes to £2,495 for complete project completion, depending on scope.
Custom internal tools for your team. Starting from £1,495 for focused micro-SaaS applications that solve specific business problems, subject to requirements assessment.
Full-featured SaaS products for market launch. Starting from £2,995 with everything needed for customer acquisition and recurring revenue, based on project requirements.
Unlike freelance developers or agencies that over-promise and under-deliver, we bring 30 years of real software development experience to every project. We've seen every problem, fixed every bug type, and built systems that actually work.
• Built and launched our own SaaS products including GetRevues and MyJourneyTracker
• Over 30 years of combined software development experience
• Proven expertise in modern frameworks and cloud platforms
• Business understanding beyond just technical skills
We don't just build software, we build businesses. Every line of code is written with your success in mind. Want to understand our approach better? Learn more about our 30+ years of experience and consider our AI training programmes to empower your team.
Before you build (or rebuild), get a comprehensive Product Requirements Document optimised for AI development tools like Lovable, Bolt.new, and Cursor. Our tool generates detailed specifications that prevent the common mistakes that require rescue services.

Get answers to the most common questions about SaaS project rescue and development
Bolt.new is excellent for rapid prototyping, but projects often fail when moving to production due to missing database persistence, incomplete authentication systems, or deployment configuration issues. The AI-generated code works in the sandbox but lacks the robust architecture needed for real users and data.
Our Project Rescue packages typically start from £995 for bug fixes and basic deployment, going up to £2,495 for complete project transformation, depending on project scope. The final cost depends on the complexity of your existing code, required features, and deployment needs. We provide a detailed assessment and fixed-price quote before starting any work.
Absolutely. Lovable apps often struggle with production deployment because they're optimised for the Lovable platform environment. We specialise in migrating these projects to proper hosting infrastructure, fixing database connections, implementing proper authentication, and ensuring your app works reliably for real users.
Micro-SaaS applications are smaller, focused software tools that solve specific problems, typically requiring less infrastructure and development time. Regular SaaS platforms are comprehensive solutions with multiple features. Micro-SaaS is perfect for testing market demand quickly and generating revenue from day one without massive upfront investment.
Most SaaS project rescues typically take 2-6 weeks depending on complexity and project scope. Simple bug fixes and deployment issues can often be resolved in 1-2 weeks, while complete architecture overhauls may take 4-6 weeks or longer for complex systems. We provide realistic timelines after our initial assessment and keep you updated throughout the process.
For SaaS development, you need both technical expertise AND business understanding. Many freelancers excel at coding but lack experience in scalable architecture, security, and business strategy. Large agencies often over-engineer simple solutions. At Menai, we combine 30 years of business experience with technical expertise specifically for SME SaaS projects.
AI tools like Bolt.new and Cursor are excellent for rapid prototyping, but they generate code optimised for demonstrations, not production environments. Common issues include missing error handling, inadequate security measures, poor database design, and lack of scalability planning. Professional development addresses these systematic gaps.
Cursor-generated applications often experience performance issues, security vulnerabilities, and data corruption when exposed to real user behaviour. The code lacks proper validation, rate limiting, and error recovery mechanisms. We specialise in hardening AI-generated code for production environments while maintaining the original functionality.
UK SaaS development typically ranges from £15,000-£100,000+ for comprehensive platforms. Our micro-SaaS approach starts from £2,995 for focused applications, subject to requirements assessment, making professional development more accessible to startups and SMEs. We focus on MVP development that can generate revenue quickly rather than expensive, over-engineered solutions.
Our rescue packages typically include: code audit and documentation, bug fixing and security hardening, database optimisation, proper deployment setup, user authentication implementation, payment integration (if needed), performance optimisation, and 30 days of post-launch support. Specific inclusions depend on project assessment and package selected.
Menai helps businesses use AI with confidence. From smart automation to clear strategy, we bring practical, forward-thinking solutions to SMEs ready to grow.
