The plan tiknix wrote for a gemstone shop
Six plain questions in, this is what came out — the shop’s problem in its own words, turned into an app to build.
A gemstone and crystal shop that runs hands-on classes — build plan
What’s painful right now
The end goal
People and roles
- Visitor browses and books
- Attendee sees their tickets
- Door staff / admin checks people in, manages events
Pages
/events | Public calendar and catalogue | anyone |
/events/view | One event and its booking | anyone |
/tickets | My tickets | signed in |
/checkin | Door check-in | staff |
/admin/events | Manage events and orders | staff |
Phases
- Phase 1 — Foundation: accounts, roles, branding and permission rows
- Phase 2 — Branding, event catalogue, public calendar and host pages
- Phase 3 — Stripe checkout with seat holds
- Phase 4 — QR tickets, emails, door check-in
- Phase 5 — Recurring series, reminders, reports
… and the data model, connections, acceptance checks.

Every project runs in its own container with its own data. One client can never reach another's.
Real backend, real integrations
Database, logins, admin, and Stripe, Shopify or QuickBooks — each key locked to its own project.
Own every line — no lock-in
Publish to your GitHub, host it anywhere, walk away anytime.
Your whole team, in one project
Developers, PMs and clients in one project — build in plain language or in code, and review a live preview together. No per-seat fees.
For developers
For product & project managers
A whole dev team, on tap
Brief the goal. Agents plan it, build it in parallel and review each other's work — you steer. Below is a real one: how tiknix built its own Get-started wizard.
From brief to handoff in three moves
Describe the app
Plain language, no code. You get a real full-stack app: data, logins, admin.
Build & connect
Refine it with AI, then connect the client's Stripe, Shopify or QuickBooks.
Publish & hand off
Ship to their repo or domain. Cancel the project when you're done.
Connect the tools your client already runs on
From Shopify apps to the SaaS you'd rather own
Build what your client keeps renting — and hand them the keys.
Shopify apps & storefronts
Orders, inventory, custom checkout — built to fit, not rented.
The SaaS you'd rather own
CRM, scheduling, dashboards — built once, owned outright.
Client portals & internal tools
Member logins, dashboards and admin — one isolated app per client.
Three founders. One common thread.
Different people, different industries — all shipped on tiknix.
They built it on tiknix.
Real apps people are shipping
Priced per project, like your invoices
First project free. Then per project, never per seat. Bring your own model — no credits, no meter.
Real people, on your quest to software sovereignty
Owning your software doesn’t mean being alone with it. Ask us anything — Matt or Fabian answers.
Ask from inside your project
Support is in every project’s menu. A person answers, in your Communications and by email — in English or Spanish.
Your AI agent can call us
When your project’s agent hits a problem on our side, it asks you, then sends us what it tried and saw.
See it first
Thirty minutes watching a real project get built. Reach out — no slides.
The questions everyone asks first
Do I need my own AI model?
Yes. Plug in Claude Code or any API key and build as much as you like — we never sell credits or meter your builds.
Do I need to write code?
No. Describe it in plain language; developers can drop into the code anytime.
Can my team work on a project together?
Yes — every paid project includes your whole team at no per-seat cost. (The free project is solo.)
Is the code mine?
Every line. Publish to your GitHub, host it anywhere, keep it if you leave.
Why build it instead of buying SaaS?
You stop renting: build it once, own it, change it on your terms. We call it NewSaaS.
Can I build a Shopify app?
Yes — embedded apps, storefront tools, ops dashboards. The store's keys stay locked to that project.
How isolated are projects?
Each project runs in its own container with its own data. No project can read another's.
What's the stack?
PHP (FlightPHP) + SQLite — conventional and readable, easy to maintain after handoff.
Can my client run it without tiknix?
Yes — publish to their repo and they host it themselves.
Bring the idea. Leave with real software.
A running, custom app — yours to own, every line.
