Makerkit.dev's answer

Indie Hackers and Companies who want to launch quickly, without compromising on quality.

Handler's answer:

Handler is made for app founders, growth marketers, mobile app teams, indie app builders, and agencies that use TikTok to grow consumer apps.

Makerkit.dev's answer

Makerkit uses Next.js 15 (App Router), Supabase, React.js, Typescript and Stripe.

Handler's answer:

Handler uses AI analysis, TikTok content research, video metadata extraction, creative pattern detection, and a web-based dashboard to help app marketers find and understand winning TikToks.

Makerkit.dev's answer

Makerkit stands out by offering a truly modular architecture built with Turborepo, where core features like auth, billing, and notifications live in their own packages for better maintainability.

While most starters lock you into specific patterns or providers, Makerkit gives you flexibility with a multi-account system supporting both B2B and B2C scenarios, provider-agnostic billing, and edge-ready deployment options.

Beyond the basics, it includes production-ready features like multi-factor auth, real-time notifications, and team permissions - all built with Supabase, TypeScript, React Query, and modern tooling to make development a genuine pleasure.

Handler's answer:

Handler is built specifically for app marketers who want to find what is already working on TikTok. Instead of guessing content ideas, Handler helps teams discover outlier TikToks, understand winning patterns, and decide what to test next.

Makerkit.dev's answer

While other starters give you basic auth and a dashboard, Makerkit provides a genuinely modular foundation with the real features SaaS products need - like multi-factor auth, team permissions, real-time notifications, and provider-agnostic billing, all organized in clean, maintainable packages using Turborepo.

You get a first-class developer experience with TypeScript, React Query, and modern tooling, plus the flexibility to support both B2B and B2C scenarios, different payment providers, and edge deployment options.

Best of all, Makerkit is actively maintained with regular updates and responsive support, so you're building on a foundation that grows with your needs rather than painting yourself into a corner.

Handler's answer:

Handler is focused on TikTok research for app growth, not generic social media management. It helps marketers move faster from “what should we post?” to clear creative direction based on real winning TikToks.

Handler's answer:

Handler was created because app teams spend too much time manually scrolling TikTok trying to understand what content works. We built it to make TikTok research faster, clearer, and more repeatable for app marketers.

Handler's answer:

Handler is currently early, so we are not publishing customer names yet. The product is built for app founders, consumer app teams, growth marketers, and agencies working on TikTok-based app growth.
