LaunchToday in 2026: A Review Based on Catalog Data
LaunchToday is one of 43 boilerplates we track, and one of 4 built on Expo. This review covers what it ships with, what it costs, and where it falls short, based on the structured listing data we maintain for every kit in the directory.
What Is LaunchToday?
Supercharge your React Native app development. This starter kit provides pre-built AI, chat, and e-commerce features, drastically reducing development time and enabling faster launches. Includes key integrations for authentication, payments, and more. Loved by 60+ founders.
LaunchToday Tech Stack
LaunchToday uses Expo, React Native, Supabase and Firebase. Only 4 kits in our catalog use Expo, so your options in this stack are comparatively limited.
What's Included in LaunchToday
LaunchToday lists 2 integrations: Auth and Payments. For context, the catalog average is 5 integrations per kit, so LaunchToday is on the leaner side. Leaner is not automatically worse; fewer integrations also means fewer dependencies to maintain or rip out. Worth knowing before you buy: Database is commonly included in comparable kits but not listed for LaunchToday. If you need it, budget the integration time yourself or look at the alternatives page.
LaunchToday Pricing
LaunchToday starts at $249. That is above the catalog median of $157, so it needs to justify the premium through its feature set or the quality of its implementation. One-time pricing for a codebase is hard to evaluate in the abstract; the relevant comparison is your own hourly cost for the setup work it replaces.
Who Should Use LaunchToday
LaunchToday makes sense if you are starting a new project on Expo and the included integrations match your requirements list. Since authentication and payments are both wired up, LaunchToday covers the two integrations that consume the most setup time in a typical SaaS build. Skip it if Database is hard requirements for you; comparable kits include it already.
Verdict
At 2 integrations against a catalog average of 5, LaunchToday competes on focus rather than breadth. At $249 the decision comes down to whether the included Auth and Payments map onto what your project actually needs. If they do, the price is a rounding error against the build time. If they don't, no boilerplate is a good deal. The main caveat remains the missing Database.

Is LaunchToday worth the price?
