Overview

The Lucht Applications hub connects client intake, operational tooling, payment flows, and cross-product admin visibility — the backbone behind our shipped work.

Problem

Running multiple products and client sites from one studio requires shared infrastructure for forms, analytics, billing signals, and operational review.

Solution

A lightweight control plane on Vercel with MongoDB-backed submissions, Stripe webhooks, and modular admin surfaces that integrate with product APIs without duplicating their logic.

Technology Stack

• Static site with Vercel serverless functions
• MongoDB for submissions and analytics
• Stripe for client payments
• Shared admin modules for cross-product visibility

Features

• Secure contact and intake flows with spam protection
• Client portal and payment link integration
• Portfolio and referral analytics
• Admin hub scaffolding for operational review
• Reusable embed badge for client sites

Challenges Solved

• Keeping the hub thin while products retain their own domains
• Designing admin flows that do not duplicate product moderation rules
• Maintaining fast static delivery with dynamic serverless endpoints

Future Roadmap

• Unified admin hub across products
• Automated client logo showcase from production sites
• Expanded analytics for badge referral attribution
