AI-Powered Full-Stack Business Platform

I am ready to kick-off development of a robust web application that will serve as both our public-facing business site and the core software platform behind it. The build needs to cover the full stack—from the database schema right through to a responsive front end—while leaving room for future growth.

Core features to implement • User authentication: standard email-and-password signup/reinforced with an email-based OTP step before first access or when risk signals appear. • Payment processing: seamless, secure checkout that can handle one-off purchases and subscriptions (PCI-compliant gateway of your choice—Stripe, PayPal, etc.). • Content management system: lightweight, intuitive CMS so non-technical staff can update pages, products and blog posts without touching code. • Custom solutions: anything not covered above that will sharpen our competitive edge—think bespoke dashboards, data visualisations or workflow automations. • AI integration: incorporate practical, value-adding AI touches such as product recommendations, conversational support chat, or predictive analytics. I’m open to the stack you prefer—Python, Node.js, or another—as long as the AI layer is efficiently wired in.

Acceptance criteria

1. A fully deployable, containerised codebase with clear README.
2. End-to-end auth flow demonstrating email + OTP verification.
3. Test transaction proving payment gateway integration.
4. CMS admin panel with role-based access.
5. At least one live AI feature measurable in the UI.
6. Clean, commented code passing agreed lint/test suites.

If this sounds like your kind of build, tell me briefly how you would architect it and which key libraries or frameworks you would reach for first.
