About this collection
Next.js is one of the most common stacks in our marketplace. Builders reach for it because the tooling is mature, the AI models are fluent in it, and the path from idea to running app is short. The same speed that gets a Next.js project deployed in a weekend is what often leaves it stalled the next month.
Listings on this page tend to be Full stack SaaS apps, Marketing sites with dynamic content, and API-backed dashboards. Some have users, some have only a working deploy. Each listing tells you which build tool the founder used, what is finished end to end, and what is still half wired. You buy what you see, not what was promised.
Every listing is for sale or open to a cofounder match. Most close between $300 and $5,000. There is no commission on the sale and we do not broker the transaction.

Before you buy
What to look for
The five checks that separate a great listing from a regret. Run through them before any wire transfer goes out.
- 01
Open the deploy URL first
Click around for ten minutes before you read a line of code. If the core flow works in your browser, you are most of the way home. If it does not, ask the founder why before going further.
- 02
Read the README and the AI rules file
Good Next.js listings ship with a clear README plus any agent rules file (.cursorrules, claude.md, AGENTS.md). The rules file tells you how the AI was steered. Missing rules file usually means inconsistent code.
- 03
Run it locally
Clone the repo, install, run. If the local environment is one command away, the founder kept things tidy. If it takes an hour to boot, expect rough edges elsewhere.
- 04
Inspect: App Router vs Pages Router consistency
Next.js projects often need attention here. Verify the founder addressed it, or budget time to fix it after handoff.
- 05
Inspect: Middleware behavior in production
Next.js projects often need attention here. Verify the founder addressed it, or budget time to fix it after handoff.
- 06
Ask for a 20 minute walkthrough
Most founders will hop on a call to walk you through the codebase. Twenty minutes saves you a week of cold reading. Use it to ask the awkward questions before you wire money.
After you buy
How to take it over
The hardest middle is already done. Four steps to turn a dormant repo into something live again.
- Step 01
Boot the project locally
Standard Next.js setup: install, configure env, run. If the founder kept the repo tidy this is fast. If not, budget a half day to get oriented.
- Step 02
Ask your AI to map the architecture
Open the repo in Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, or your editor of choice. Ask it for a one-page map of routes, components, and data flow. Saves you a day of cold reading.
- Step 03
Find the smallest broken thing
Look for the thing the founder almost finished. AI tools are fastest at closing small, specific gaps. Pick one, ship it, build momentum.
- Step 04
Ship the launch on a deadline
Set a real launch date one to two weeks out. The reason these projects sat in archive folders was usually scope creep, not technical difficulty. A deadline kills both.

FAQ
Common questions
- What kinds of Next.js projects are typically for sale on Failedups?
- Most listings are half built apps that the founder did not launch. SaaS prototypes, marketing sites, dashboards, internal tools. The build tool the founder used is listed on every project. Inspect each listing for what is finished end to end versus what is mocked.
- Are these Next.js projects production ready?
- Most are 60 to 90 percent complete. The deploy works, the core flow runs, but launch items remain. Read the founder note for what is left, run the project locally, and ask the founder for a 20 minute walkthrough before deciding.
- Can I migrate a listed Next.js project to a different stack?
- Yes. The code is yours after the sale. Many buyers port frontends, swap database providers, or move from one host to another. Next.js is portable. Plan for a focused refactor sprint if your target stack is meaningfully different.
- What is a fair price for a stalled Next.js project?
- Most close between $300 and $5,000. Projects with paying customers, a strong audience, or unusually clean code go higher. Next.js projects without users tend to sit at the lower end. The founder's asking price reflects what they think the project is worth to someone with time to ship it.
- Do Next.js listings include the deploy and the database?
- Most do. The repo, the domain, the hosting accounts, and any database that runs the app are typically part of the sale. The exact bundle is described on each listing. Confirm in writing before paying.
- How do I evaluate a Next.js codebase before buying?
- Open the deploy URL first. Then clone the repo, run it locally, and read the README. Ask the founder for a 20 minute walkthrough on Zoom. Use that call to ask why they stopped, what is half wired, and what they think the smallest path to launch looks like.
