ShipAddons is a complete toolkit designed specifically for building production-ready Google Workspace Add-ons. It serves as a starter kit that eliminates the repetitive setup work involved in creating add-ons for Google Workspace applications like Sheets, Docs, Slides, and Forms.

The boilerplate includes Google Workspace-native authentication using Google Identity Tokens with automatic session handling and per-app scope configuration. It features Stripe integration for payments, Supabase database setup, sidebar and dialog UI configuration, and a build system using Vite and TypeScript. The codebase is designed to be AI-ready with clean, well-documented code that AI tools can understand and help extend.

The system works by providing pre-configured authentication that handles secure backend token verification and user profile retrieval. It includes entitlement mapping for feature-based access control without hardcoding plan checks, allowing developers to easily customize which features require which subscription levels.

Developers benefit from significant time savings estimated at 60 hours minimum, which translates to approximately $3,000 at $50/hour. The boilerplate handles deployment workflows for multiple apps and provides a complete foundation that lets developers focus on building unique features rather than infrastructure.

The product targets developers building Google Workspace Add-ons, particularly those who want to avoid repetitive setup work for authentication, payments, and Google APIs. It integrates with Google Workspace applications, Stripe for payments, Supabase for database, and is compatible with AI development tools like Cursor, Claude, GitHub Copilot, and ChatGPT.
