Next BoostWindows software

The app that tunes Windows and the website that sells the license.

Next Boost is an app for Windows 10 and 11 that removes what weighs the system down, reduces latency and tunes Windows for gaming and work in one click, with a backup to undo each change. The product is Next’s own. We kept developing the software and rebuilt the digital operation around it, from the website to support.

Next Boost app home screen on Windows, with the notice of five bottlenecks detected, the Aplicar boost recomendado button, CPU, GPU and memory usage and the Windows power plan selector.

The starting point

Next Boost is sold by subscription, and the app alone does not close the sale. People need to find the website, understand the plans, pay and get the license with no waiting on anyone from the team. After that, they need documentation and a support channel when something doesn’t go as expected. The seller needs to know where visits come from and at what point they give up on the purchase.

The work had two fronts: developing the app further and rebuilding the digital operation around it, with website, infrastructure, checkout, payments, licenses, admin panel, analytics and support.

From website to license

The website launched in Portuguese and English, with documentation, a support center, login and a subscriber dashboard. The plans are Free, Lite and Pro, with monthly, quarterly or annual billing and a 7-day guarantee.

Payment goes through Stripe, for subscriptions and one-time purchases, and through Pix Automático by Woovi. When the payment is approved, a webhook grants the license, which is sent encrypted. No one on the team needs to check a receipt before the subscriber can start using it.

The app

Next Boost runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11. There are 8 modules in the same app and more than 120 tweaks applied in one click, and the backup lets you undo any of them. On the home screen, the app points out the bottlenecks it found, shows CPU, GPU and memory usage and offers the recommended boost, next to the Windows power plan selector.

The website publishes FPS comparisons by game. In Valorant, the test goes from 152 to 525 FPS, and there are also comparisons for ARC Raiders, Battlefield 6, Counter-Strike 2 and Fortnite. The same site warns that the gain varies with hardware, settings, temperature, system version and game.

Technical decisions

The API runs on Fastify, the web screens are in React and the data lives in Supabase, on Postgres. The services run in Docker containers.

The app sends telemetry on latency, CPU clock and memory usage. The server responds to the upload right away and processes the data later, asynchronously.

The admin panel brings together users, payments, subscriptions, licenses and support. In the analytics tab, you can follow visitors from their first session, through pages viewed and clicks to checkout, to payment and download, and see in the funnel at which step visits stop.

Where it stands today

Next Boost is live at nextboost.pro, in Portuguese and English, with a Discord community and channels on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok. It has more than 1,200 active players, with an average rating of 4.9 out of 5 and a 92% renewal rate.

Does your software still depend on someone granting each license by hand?

Hi! I saw the Next Boost case study on the Next Estúdios site. I have software and I want to set up the sales side around it, with checkout, payment and automatic license delivery. Can we talk?
