Build a Production SaaS Application with AI

About this course

Learn to build and launch a complete Software as a Service (SaaS) application using AI-assisted development techniques. This course walks through the entire product lifecycle, from planning a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to deploying a monetized Application Programming Interface (API) service. You will build a Python API using FastAPI, define data models, create documented endpoints, and verify behavior with an automated pytest test harness. The course covers Docker containerization from Dockerfile creation through container testing, automated builds via Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines, and publishing images to a container registry for production distribution. In the second module, you will build the go-to-market foundation: designing conversion-focused landing pages, structuring pricing tiers, deploying a marketing site to GitHub Pages, implementing API key authentication for metered access, and writing developer documentation that drives adoption. Throughout the course, Large Language Model (LLM) tools accelerate development from architecture planning through code generation. By completing this course, you will have the skills to take an AI-powered SaaS product from concept to production launch.
