Launch kit
Tools & setup for MintBreeze
Everything you need to launch AI phone calls and an AI Gmail/inbox replier — including the Claude pieces you already use.
Every tool you need
Claude Console (platform.claude.com)
Buy and manage API credits for production AI. This is separate from claude.ai chat.
You already bought ~$20 of credits here.
Claude Sonnet 5 (API model)
Powers MintBreeze AI features (builder, agents, reply drafting). Set AI_API_KEY + optional AI_MODEL=claude-sonnet-5.
Default model in this codebase when using an Anthropic key.
Claude Design (claude.ai/design)
Iterate landing pages, decks, and brand visuals on-brand before or alongside code.
The design tool Dan Martell mentioned — Pro/Max/Team/Enterprise.
Claude Pro / Max (optional)
Chat + Claude Design usage for product thinking and creative work.
Useful alongside Console credits.
Domain + DNS
Your public brand URL pointed at your host.
Point your domain at the MintBreeze deploy.
Hosting (Railway / Vercel / similar)
Runs the Next.js app and connects to Postgres.
This repo already includes Railway config.
PostgreSQL
Stores accounts, sites, leads, billing state, and panel data.
Required — see docker-compose.yml for local.
Stripe

Create Pro / Pro+ / Breeze Pro+ products in Stripe ($19.99 / $39.99 / $69.99).
Gmail / Google Cloud OAuth
Customer login and/or Gmail inbox access for the AI replier (OAuth scopes).
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID / SECRET in .env when ready.
Voice / telephony provider
Inbound numbers, SIP, or call APIs so the AI can answer real phone calls (e.g. Twilio or similar).
Wire this when you take Voice AI past demo.
Transactional email (Gmail SMTP or Resend)
Password resets, support mail, notifications.
Defaults toward support@mintbreeze.org in this repo.
Cursor (this workspace)
Ship the site, dashboard, and integrations in the MintBreeze codebase.
You are already here.
Step-by-step setup
1. Lock the offer
Plans are set: Pro $19.99, Pro+ $39.99, Breeze Pro+ $69.99 in src/config/marketing-plans.ts. Mirror those tiers in src/config/pricing.ts and Stripe Price IDs when billing goes live.
2. Brand & design
MintBreeze uses an icy light-blue + white system (no black) with the official mountains + mint leaf + breeze mark at public/brand/mintbreeze-logo.jpg.
3. Local app
Copy .env.example → .env. Set DATABASE_URL, AUTH_SECRET, and AI_API_KEY from Claude Console. Run docker compose up -d, npm install, npx prisma migrate dev, npm run db:seed, npm run dev.
4. Connect AI
In Claude Console, create an API key. Put it in AI_API_KEY. Leave AI_PROVIDER unset for Anthropic auto-detect, or set AI_PROVIDER=anthropic and AI_MODEL=claude-sonnet-5. Watch AI_MONTHLY_BUDGET_USD so spend stays controlled.
5. Voice AI path
Pick a telephony provider, buy/port a number, and connect webhooks to your call handler. Train scripts for greeting, qualification, booking, and handoff. Test with real after-hours scenarios before selling.
6. Inbox AI path
Create a Google Cloud OAuth client with Gmail scopes you need. Connect a test mailbox. Start with draft-only replies, then enable auto-send for safe categories. Log every send for trust and debugging.
7. Billing
In Stripe, create three monthly products. Paste Price IDs into STRIPE_PRICE_* env vars. Point the Stripe webhook to /api/webhooks/stripe. Keep refund policy copy honest on /legal/refunds.
8. Ship & measure
Deploy (Railway config is in-repo). Point DNS. Soft-launch with a few service businesses. Track answer rate, time-to-first-reply, bookings, and inbox clearance — then tighten prompts weekly.
